Agreed, but it's a matter of statistics.  I reply to the list rather
more often than the sender, and i'm sure most others are the same.  I'd
estimate 90-95% of replies i make are to the list...

Seconded. The vast majority of lists I use (and have used) default to reply
to the list. I expect reply-to-sender when using a list populated by
old-time, died-in-the-wool *ix diehards, but this isn't that kind of list .
.  . and damn! would you believe it - I just spotted that I clicked on
"Reply" rather than "Reply to All" and was about to reply off-list? Time to
copy the content, cancel, start a new reply to all, and paste, as I so
often do. . .

(And then I have to manually delete lias-admin at lists.linux.org.au, which my
UA picks up, for some reason. . .)
