Paul,

It isn't insensitive. If you really pay by the byte and FD is too much,
there are better ways to follow FD:

Read the archives. (Ok, not the most practical thing to do)
Subscribe to the moderated version of FD (can't recall name).
Read FD via webmail.

And the shoe was on the other foot once (fidonet ect).
I would be more creative to follow the list, if it was still on.

Regards,
