I wish to respond to all the admin posts I've been reading recently.

I like the idea of prefacing every post with the speaker's name.

I dislike all the other ideas I've heard.  Numbering tables: Confusing and  
extreemly hard to set up (which table is #1?  which table am I at?  OK, I want  
to go talk to Sir Whozits now what table was that?)  puting place in the subj  
line: The subjects lines are huge anyway and half go off my screen so I can't  
tell what the article is about without reading it.  This would only increase  
that more and as has been pointed out, some of us are in multiple places at one  
time.  On separate newsgroups: Why?  We really don't need it and it would make  
life even more confusing.  Alt.pub.dragons-inn.royal-chambers.left.corner.table  
is a bit long for a news group (and this seems to be where we are headed  
currently with each call for more specific groups.) (Yes, I'm exagerating, but  
it makes my point.)

BOTTEM LINE: What we've got seems to work reasonibly well.  I know who I'm  
talking to and watch for.  If someone wants my attention, they put my  
character's name in their sub line and I'll catch it.  We really don't need  
anymore burocracy in this group.
