I think Ned is being exceptionally helpful in keeping this list in order And you are being inflammatory in the above given that Ned just said: > I'm not telling people not to use Google Groups.

You are of course free to filter out GG posts if you wish -- thats a separable question. [And I reiterate my request to check why I have been kicked off from GG and have to use mail. As rurpy said I cant handle a mailing list volume of this scale for too long] -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
