I, for one, thank you for making this change Curt!  There are cases where
replies should go private, and cases where replies should go to the list.
In a list such as this one that's designed to foster communication in a
group, I really believe replies should default to the list.  Hitting the
"reply" button is instinctive for many of us, and thinking you're replying
to the list only to realize you sent the reply private, and then having to
resend the message is one of the most frustrating things around.

Thanks again,

Jeremy, NW7JU
