Cool... I'm glad I'm not the only one declared "one hell of a luser" by Robin 
this week!  I'd hate to be the only one...it would make me feel 
so....inadequate.

I'd like to state for the record that I'm on the list and I want CC's because 
if I'm actually providing something useful to a conversation, the sooner I get 
the other side's messages, the sooner I can say something useful.  I leave the 
headers unedited because that means the default behavior of most mail clients 
will be to do exactly what I want.

I'm not cc'ing Robin even though he hasn't put the appropriate headers on his 
message because I see no need to accelerate his ability to flame me.  
(Besides, I'm already a luser, so what more do I have to luse?)
