Yeah, my e-mailbox was stuffed, too, until I altered my FILTER to
send all messages with "dancing" in them to a folder labeled "Dancing."
Now all these messages about the budget, who has authority and
responsibility to do what, the salsa dances, parties and whatnot are going
into a folder just for this listserve. Thank goodness for this program
called FILTER that is already on UNIX.

If anyone is interested in managing their e-mail by having FILTER
sort it into folders, please contact me, and try *not* to reply to all
200+ people on the listserve, or they will complain that we are getting
off-topic. (How could "dancing" through UNIX be off-topic? :-) )

By the way, I appreciate all the work officers are putting into
DI. I'm not a member yet--still going to get my $5 to someone, maybe
Sunday--and haven't been able to get to many activities. But that list of
activities was impressive. And I would like to check out that video on
leading and being led.

Still, it's incredible. Officers discussed in the bylaws how funds
could be spent in an unauthorized fashion (or something like that),
decided it could never happen so the bylaws should be safe, and then it
did happen? Now we know better, huh? I hope this one won't come to the
attention of the accountants in the Registered Students Organization
office.

And who let Murphy's Law join the DI, anyway? :-)
