It happened again today.  Somebody e-mailed the list and CCed me,
or vice versa, and I got only one copy.  Either the list server
is smarter than it used to be and didn't send me a copy since
my e-mail address was in the TO, CC, or BCC list, or else my
ISP's mail server has been smartened up to eliminate duplicate
e-mails, which to it appear to be genuine duplicates (with
different routing paths for delivery).  Either way, I get only one copy.

In any event, the people have spoken.  Leave the CC rule the same.
Thanks to all who contributed.
