Michael,
About the formation of the 2 lists: What I think happened, I was on
the nonYahoo list at the time, is that that list was having problems staying
on. It was breaking down for one reason or another and David Thompson
started the Yahoo list just as a temporary fix. I don't think anyone was
expecting 2 lists to stay active but the "nonYahoo" list was fixed and the
Yahoo list kept going. Many people are on both lists.
I have become reluctant to post on the lists because of Blowhards like
Han's Pizka taking everything the wrong way and acting like everyone (except
him) is an idiot.
Ahhhh well...
Leonard
