So you are declaratively NOT a man of your word!

Viable but with less than 50% of the people that were on the pure-silver
list at tundraware.

Completely WORTHLESS. The software they are using, htdig, is not well suited
to the task and their machine is just too overloaded.
Pure-Silver.org NEED not accept my donation of a license to IB. They can
use whatever engine/indexer they choose. I offer to donate a license because
I am in a position to donate a license.

So you are arguing that Lenin was right.. The workers are too stupid and
drunk to ever want to take their own destiny into their own hands.. Or Hitler,
as in the masses are so stupid and drunk you can get them to jump on any
bandwagon if there is free beer. Hail the fearless leaders!

These and more are offered by pure-silver.org PLUS the enabling mechanism to
import everyone from tundraware in a completely transparent manner--- NO NEED
even to do anything and there is even a way to have messages addressed to
pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx go to the new list over a period of transition..
Whoever hosts pure-silver.org today NEED NOT be the host tommorrow.. But no-one
would ever notice. Its complete transparent.
