Hi Richard, this question/discussion pops up from time to time. Everyone has other preferences. But for me it is the easiness to read the list. I have downloaded and archived the list emails since 2005. I can search and read off-line. And for me the other big adavantage of the list is. I can read it with quick my phone when i have some spare time without visiting and "searching" a website. I am also visiting the forum from time to time, but reading the list is much faster.
