Thread Name: Obit: Goodbye Merritt (Herring)[April 2004]
Subject: RE: Obit: Goodbye Merritt
I'd like to post an open problem/question to the mudcat directors. As I suggested that you consider archiving this thread, I'm also a valid person to question that same thought. Everyone here knows my respect and admiration for late Merrit Herring, so I need not fear stepping on toes by raising these thoughts.

As mudcat is still somewhat new, and growing constantly in depth and scope, mudcat can continue to expect new challenges every week. I'm wondering, out loud, if mudcat really should be careful about establishing a "precident", if you will, by archiving this thread.

I hasten to add that these are MY thoughts alone, I've talked with no one else about them. But, seeing the number of "obit postings" that happen, I would suggest that the question of "to archive or not" be given a lot of serious thought.

Better heads than mine should prevail here. CHEERS and hugs to all. Bob(deckman)Nelson
