You can read Dale's very precise desire to limit the number of posts of any CR listmember to 3 per 24 hour period. It is also very clear that as of September 13th, anybody violating this rule would face a one week suspension.
Given that in the last 24 hours, Jerry has now posted 5 times, and John 4 times, it would appear that they are the first people to infringe this rule. Given that Dale is away and not necessarily able to impose his selected 'punishment', and that both or very correct and gentlemanly fellows, it would only seem fair to me that the two that are in infraction self-suspend themselves for the week. This is also perhaps a good time for all of the rest of us to remember that multiple topics can be combined into one post and all posts should be weighty.

PS: If John or Jerry has some important information that needs to be shared to the complete CR-list during their self-imposed period of suspension, please feel free to send me the information and I will do my best to convey it onwards, as it is my understanding that Dale's suspension rule is not intended to prevent the expression of information or ideas, but rather to simply teach a degree of self-restraint. It would indeed be a pity to lose some important information due to this rule.
