Hello, I haven't been saying a whole lot since I originally subscribed so I figured I would throw a little weight around.

I guess a more specific pointer would cnn, bbc , gaurdian, whatever those news media their general problem (or asset depending on the way you look at it) is that they generally remain local, I have been intrigued by the controversy and the amount of perspective. In this sense though I have seen only some relation to ubuntu/FOSS/linux which as some mention tends to spiral out from the subject matter so the subject and message have almost,if not completely, no relation so a completely different topic. OTOH, I have found some things on here have inspired me to look further into detail than was being discussed. I do believe that sounder continues to serve its purpose even if the topics do "overgrow" their original meaning. A lot of other ubuntu-* lists are specific to a repair or tweaking a setting to fix an issue. Sounder has been one of the rare lists that make me want to look further and I enjoy that aspect of it. -Erik
