I have been deleting without reading this list for a long time now, but
I have to weigh in with Alan Rosenthal. I unsubscribed from one of the
CDSS list because I felt it was inappropriately being used (abused) to
promote individual programs. I was getting ready to unsubscribe from
this list too. Not because of the subject, but because the topic just
didn't seem to know that it was done. Maybe having a time limit for
each topic and creating a new thread for (sub) topics would help.
Soon to exit, maybe,

create a separate mailing list for that topic?
Then the discussion can continue unimpeded, without destroying this mailing
list.
Because things like this DO destroy mailing lists, because people unsubscribe
from a mailing list which is dominated by a topic they find unworthy. Let's
give such people a different mailing list to unsubscribe from instead, and
divide topics between the two mailing lists appropriately.
