C64 item, also Re: and my view of cctalk delivery)

[Rob O'Donnell]

Just heard a note that there is an item about the Commodore 64 on the 
BBC You and Yours programme tomorrow lunchtime.  If you can't get 
Radio 4, you can listen via the website (live and past programmes, so 
fine if you miss it)

Noooo...  I forget how many web based forums I am a member of, and I 
barely ever check any of them.   Except the few that give me an RSS 
feed which I have subscribed to and so appear to me just like an 
email list anyway...  I don't read more than 10% of the emails that 
come in via cctalk, since my area of interest is pretty much BBC 
Micros, and doesn't encompass Big Iron (with the sole exception that 
I used to use a number of VAX's  20 years ago, so do read a few items 
on those.) but I don't mind. I just scan the subjects and dip in when 
things look interesting.  TBH, I almost prefer the off-topic banter 
than I do the non-relevant stuff that just goes over my head.

Basically, email reaches me.  Websites I would have to go and look 
at, which I don't.
