(As an aside to this note, can I request that we all sign off our
messages to Birding-Aus with our full name and email address? There
seems to be a tendency for people to sign off with just a first name
and nothing else. It's as good as anonymous to me, as the system I
use (through work) does not display the sender's address and I can not
respond to people direct because I do not know their address. It's
also common courtesy with to sign "mail".)
