In response to Mr Blackhall's comments:

>Not only is your message of interest to only a subset of readers

That is probably true for every single posting in this mailing list; the
subset of readers to whom the NIH funding cuts are of interest is likely to
be a rather large one.

>I question the relevance to a cytomety mailing list.

It would appear to me that the prospect of a 6% chance of getting NIH funds
for research next year (as opposed to a 25% chance this year) is eminently
relevant to most researchers participating in discussions on this list.

>May I suggest that in future you restrict such material to the

I suggest that in future you skip messages you deem irrelevant instead of
trying to censor their authors.
