I respectfully disagree. While GMk gets treated on Synoptic-L, it gets
treated fundamentally in terms of the relevance of anything in Mark to a
solution (or more generally, IMHO, to a NON-solution) of the Synoptic
problem. I personally find GMk the single most fascinating literary
document in the GNT, and I would very much like to see a discussion list
focusing strictly on matters bearing directly on understanding this one
little sequence of 16 chapters. Personally I'd have no use for a list on
Mark that duplicated what Synoptic-L does with Mark.
