my 2 cents?

As a new subsriber, and an x-ray/Rietveld novice, I have been kind of
disappointed by some of the requests that we only reply personally instead of
to the entire mailing list. When someone writes in a question, most of the
time, I will have no idea of what the answer would be. But usually, I will
only see the question. THe answer will go directly to the person who asked it
and it leaves me a little bit more depressed about how much there is that I
don't know yet. It seems to me that it only takes a few seconds to delete
a message. Of all the forms of communication that have evolved, none seem more
effortless than Electronic Mail. Maybe that's why people don't actually write
letters to each other any more because it takes too much effort. That seems
a bit strange. I guess what I am trying to say is keep those requests and
answers coming! Please.

Thanks
