I've found that every list seems to have its own way of doing things 
like this... all based off of someone's personal preference from a long 
time ago.

Getting a list to change after years of operation is rather difficult as 
people tend to learn how to work with each list.

I personally like the way that the lists are because it makes it very 
easy to take a conversation off-list.  Other lists don't like 
conversations to go off-list, and so they try to frustrate it.

I realize, though, that some will take threads off-list by accident... 
and for the most part it's really no harm.

Lee.
