[G4] Lowendmac List Mom is Elsewhere

[Al Poulin]

True, the listmom has not removed individuals from the list.  That may 
be because the listmom quoted here, and who you'd expect to clamp down 
on abuses in the list, is not the listmom for this list.  It is Dan 
Knight's netiquette that you quoted.  Dan Knight, the list mom for all 
lowendmac.com lists, has nothing to do with the lists managed by 
themacintoshguy.com.  Eric Prentice, who runs the Dr. Bott, LLC company 
also runs the lists at themacintoshguy.com.

There was a time when Dan Knight used themacintoshguy.com server for 
his lists.  That was before he moved them to googlegroups.com.  Hence, 
some confusion remains today.  And Eric credits Dan for inspiring him 
to run his own lists.  See the bottom at:
http://www.themacintoshguy.com/lists/

Dan Knight, with his army of list nannies, runs a pretty tight ship.  
But that does not help things here.
