remove from a list

[John Carnahan]

To all,

I have 2 questions:

1) Can I get rid of a member of a "(List) alist" without knowing the 
index of that member within the list? I can write a function that does 
this but I just wondered if something like this was planned or already 
exists. I guess it would go something like [aList remove: aMember] where 
aMember is an id.

2) What happens in the background when a member is removed from a list? 
Are the indices of the other members in the list updated accordingly?
Does this have anything to do with difference between "drop" and "remove"?
What do these 2 methods do differently?
