Hi all,
<rant>
In my younger days, we used to love to go skiing. Every so often someone would bust his or her @$$ and land upside down, or wrap around a tree. It was funny to watch, since it didn't effect the rest of us. In honor of those fun times, I propose we aware "JAMF Casper Mailing List - Bozo Of The Week" awards to folks who do silly things that water down the effectiveness/usefulness of the JAMF Casrper Mailing List.
To win this prestegious award, something really bazarre has to happen. Since JAMF Casper Mailing List members are professional IT people who mere mortals rely on to guide them so they use technology in the smartest, most effective and efficient way possible, I propose we award those who (perhaps inadvertently?) post rediculously long emails to this list, thus screwing things up for the rest of us. Some of us rely on this list....
This week's JAMF Casper Mailing List "Bozo Of The Week" award goes to....<drumroll>......
*Emmanuel Affran (for his 1992 line post to the JAMF Casper list)*
That's right, Emmanuel quoted the *entire* 22 message Digest...Go Emmanuel! I wish we could afford to give you money, perhaps to take an "Internet Etiquite 101" course.
*Honerable mention*
Craig S. Ernst (for his 2027 line reply to Emmanuel's 1,992 line post)
A bit of info on Internet Etiquette:

"Be brief without being overly terse. When replying to a message, include enough original material to be understood but no more. It is extremely bad form to simply reply to a message by including all the previous message: edit out all the irrelevant material."
