Dear Steve:

Don't let the jerks get you down. PLEASE! Same for the listowner. You are
providing an invaluable service and I appreciate it very much. Folks are
just ignorant and don't know what they are missing. I know it is hard for
you to hear the backlash but that is expected with some of these people.
Keep your chin up.
