Goodness, I go to sleep, wake up 8 hours later and

So, can I get you all to just pause before you send in a reply and ask:
is this really relevant to the history of Unix, and does it contribute
in a meaningful way to the conversation.
Is this really necessary? There's a certain amount of traffic
necessary to keep a list going, and restricting it can have unwanted
results. Yes, I agree, there's a lot of traffic at the moment, and
I'm having trouble with it too, but it'll subside of its own accord.
And who knows, maybe some unexpected gem might pop up.
