No - it was a contextual question - The WA list has had only one one
two posts, both from me, I believe, and it may be that I am the only
one apart from its List Administrator, subscribed to that list, so I
asked whether anyone else on this list, is in WA.

One thing that I find curious about your message, is the number of
weeks it took to get from gmail to being distributed by the mailing
list;

I haven't seen email being transmitted so slowly, for several years
now, when iinet took two or three weeks for email to be transmitted
from the Perth CBD to the outer suburbs of Perth - I could have walked
that distance in a day, faster than iinet's email transmission at that
time. We switched from iinet, after the problems with their email, and
have not regretted it.
