I'll go with this, I don't see a need to split the list.  One thing I have
noticed is that, when people are replying to a post, sometimes they quote
the whole of a long post when it's not really necessary.  I think it would
cut down on traffic if more contributors did a little pruning before they
reply.  Sometimes it's a bit tedious scrolling through a reply and having to
read the original post which I'd only read a couple of minutes before.  I'm
*not* having a go at anyone, please don't feel offended.
