Marni,

I've only now returned to SOCGRAD after a time away, but I was able to
look back at old postings (due to the way I receive them), and I
believe that TR Young's first message was on April 24, when he
announced, "I will reproduce one of the mini-lectures assembled over
the years for socgrad email as long as grad students think it useful."
I can't find that anyone objected at the time, but I second your
objection now, if only because Youn's lectures don't seem to be
sparking any conversation among the rest of us, who he evidently
fashions as hisstudents, and may even be inhibinting people, since no
one wants to take the floor from a Red Feather Institute scholar, lest
she or he appear politically incorrect.
