Tina and other list admins,
It is my personal opinion that "no action" is the correct recourse. The
mail list is a great avenue for all contributors regardless. Unless a
posting is inappropriate, I would venture to say we should allow our readers
to decide on whether they choose to use outsourced information provided by
another subscriber. As long as solicitation is not the intent of sharing
such resources on our mail lists, we need not take any action as a mail list
manager.
Any direct request to include questionable material to the KyArchives is
part of what keeps us busy within the nature of the beast. The hard part is
not knowing where the contribution comes from originally. Siphoning
material or data from other web sites as a submission to our archival web
pages is not always readily identifiable. It is okay for us to require any
submission to be a work of original effort and not a product of violated
copy rights.

A note went out to the Union County mailing list, but I never got a
notice
requesting me to upload it to my archives. It's the only post to the list
for the month of April.
