It seems to me that a feeling of camaradie and family
can come from including off-topic posts, and that's a
good thing, in my opinion. It should be here instead
of on the volunteer list though. Lisa Kidder, in the
Peace Corps now in Thailand, set up one via yahoo but
not many people joined it, and conversations sort of
fell off. I think many people don't want to belong to
too many lists, though I see a lot of you joined
twitter.

Oh, Sue--that reminds me of something
else--smile--rather than join Twitter or the Chat
Rooms I can use that time to maintain my lists. big
