I conclude from this that the listservs work well enough to be actually
used by non-computer-science researchers. And that we may have
something to learn from them.
Exactly ... for *whatever* reason, LISTSERVs seem to be used and,
therefore, must have some perceived value.
Although I'd be hard-pressed to apply that same argument to, for
example, MS-DOS...
