Addressing one individual risks slowing down or killing a thread, Jon, but it should be the writer's choice. Addessing six people is a clever twist.

What do the rest of you think about Jon's device? Was it good to be mentioned by name or did it hurt if Jon forgot to include you on his list? If you have never written to mudcat and no one knows that you exist, do you feel left out? Is there anyone that I missed? Speak up please.
