Ain't it just  :=(
Indeed, I'm finding I'm just having to trash unread some of the conlang
mails if the threads seem uninteresting, just to be able to keep up.  A
pity really - as I might miss the odd, unexpected gem.  But one has to
keep one's sanity.

But don't worry, Kristian.  Every list I've been on seems to go through
phases when there's next to no traffic - but next moment they come thick
and fast and you can barely keep up; then after a month or so, it calms
down and we have the trickle again.  Oh for a list where there was always
just a steady, manageable number!

Nil desperandum,
Ray.
