Well I said it would be an identical message but that would be silly.
Back on the 16th I posted a vote message about the big list of all
known APhiO web sites that went something like this:

} Recently, I received a complaint about the list of all known APhiO web
} sites which I post at the end of every month.  The person basically
} suggested that only a URL pointing to the list was really necessary
} and that posting the entire list was just clogging up everyone's
} email.  I actually tend to agree with this person, but the number of
} submissions I get for that list over the next 2-4 days after I post it
} would seem to suggest otherwise.
}
} So we'll vote, and I'm sorry but this one is going to be complicated,
} please REPLY TO THIS MESSAGE AND INCLUDE ITS TEXT and answer the
} following questions below if you care at all.  Any votes that are sent
} to hochstrd@cs.rose-hulman.edu or rhochste@utsi.edu will be ignored.

This caused some confusion for those on DIGEST MODE (and you'd think I
would have thought of that since I'm on DIGEST MODE!).  For those of
you on DIGEST MODE don't reply directly to this message.  Send an
email message to <hochsted@cs.utk.edu> with your votes, preferably
including the following text:

} 1. [ ] WELCOME        Do you believe the BIG WWW LIST currently posted at
}    [ ] BANNED         the end of every month is a welcome addition to APO-L
}    [ ] ABSTAIN        or should be BANNED!
}
} 2. [ ] FULL           Assuming the list will continue to be posted do you
}    [ ] CHANGES        think that the FULL list should be posted or only
}    [ ] ABSTAIN        changes to it since the last posting?
}
} 3. [ ] 12             Assuming the list will continue to be posted do you
}    [ ]  6             think that it should happen every month (12), every
}    [ ]  4             other month (6), or every three months (4)?
}    [ ] ABSTAIN
}
} The list in question can be found at the URL
}       http://work1.utsi.edu:8000/fuzz/aphio/cyber/web.html

Currently the voting is at 24 people
        20 :WELCOME             13 :FULL                16 :12
         1 :BANNED              11 :CHANGES              2 : 6
         3 :ABSTAIN              0 :ABSTAIN              5 : 4
                                                         1 :ABSTAIN

You can do the statistical analysis on your own.  If the voting
continues like this I'll post it at the end of every month and variate
back and forth between full and changes.

} Votes will be taken up until July 31 at which time the votes will be
} tabulated and the list will be posted to APO-L accordingly.

I will be out of town at the Region VI Staff Meeting in Chicago this
weekend and then visiting my parents for a bit so I won't get back
until the voting is over.  If you've got a question about this during
that time that you absolutely NEED to have answered, Randy Finder
<naraht@drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu> is your best chance for an informed
response.

} Thank-you for indulging me, we now return to you to your regularly
} scheduled email... already in progress. :)
