Your argument is removed from the point. I think it should be clear that 
only 2 of the posting to this list were primarily political.  Those two 
were focused on engaging members in political action regarding Turkey 
and made the assumption that members of the list were against military 
intervention in Iraq.  They were not about internet cultural, research, 
issues, although a follow up message on effectiveness of email was.
