Yes.. but you are known for posting invitations to lanparties to the wrong list.
My take on it is that most of the time personal replies are better, unless it's
useful info that everyone on the list can use.... at least the list doesn't
get 500 me too messages when someone mentions free penguins at mahaffy's etc....
