Doh, I forgot which channel this was on again :( It feels like a
python-list thread.

Can't you just hit Reply-List or even Reply-All?

I don't like Reply-All as it's too easy to send the double-ups, and
Gmail doesn't have Reply-List. I should switch to Thunderbird or
something at some point, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
Incidents like this are a definite push, but my D&D campaign is
demanding my attention right now, so I haven't made the move.

I should probably try that some time. Though in our D&D parties, I
tend to land the role of Dungeon Master by default... still looking
for people to DM some more campaigns.
