Hello Bai Guohua in Sweden--

I am sorry that you find what you call personal-oriented messages
annoying. Over the years I have observed great variability in how
members of this list self-organize the discussions. I am sure other
members of the list appreciate your expression of your personal preference.
I strongly suspect some agree with you while others like this list *because*
of its informal, personal communicative style.

What sort of topic would you like to discuss? While there is no way to
gurantee that others will pick up your initiatives, the best way to shape
the nature of the discourse is to participate actively.
