[Heathkit] Re: Heathkit & no subject

[Robert & Linda McGraw K4TAX]

I wholeheartedly agree.  I find it most interesting that since the advent of 
e-mail and such, people seem delighted in hiding behind strange and 
mysterious "screen names".  Your parents gave you a name, .....be proud of 
it and use it.  That is, unless the FBI or CIA has you on their "Wanted 
List" then you shouldn't be here anyway.

Also, on many e-mail programs, spam filters and such, messages with a blank 
subject line goes directly to the trash bin.  Mind does.  If you don't think 
any more of your message than not to include a subject line, I don't think 
for a second about dumping it into the trash.
