[Birdtalk] reply to BirdTalk -- birdtalk in cc box

[Connie McManus]

My 2 pennies worth....Keep Birdtalk as is.  In my case, it doesn't matter
how it is set up, I will eventually make a gaff (as many of you know
already) because I AM A KEYBOARD KLUTZ!  I can't help myself, I just make
goofs.

I have gmail.  There is an option in gmail to reply to sender or reply to
all, so it's up to me to make the right choice no matter how the listserve
is set up.  I like it that way.
