that would not solve the problem of digesters responding to 
questions already answered.  i actually like getting multiple 
replies which say the same thing because that way i can be even 
more sure that the information is correct - not to say that i 
don't have faith in listers, but as my grandpappy said about 
overkill:            

overkill?  what in the sam hell is overkill?!  once you kill something, 
it's dead.  you can't make it more dead!  no i am not over-reacting.  
what in the sam hell is over-reacting...
