Marxmail has a limit of 5 posts a day, which is pretty generous 
(LBO-Talk has a limit of 3). I don't mind if people go over the limit 
from time to time, but I am dead set to this mailing list turning 
into a branch of Usenet or Yahoo. My suggestion in fact is that 
comrades write lengthier but fewer posts. As a rule of thumb, you 
should ask yourself before posting something: will other subscribers 
learn something from what I posted. For example, Joaquin's post 
yesterday about Mumbai was excellent. Patrick Bond's response to 
Mamdani was also very good. But just to exchange opinions devoid of 
facts or substance does not seem to be a very good use of bandwidth 
to a mailing list dedicated to the Marxist tradition.
