Hi Dave,

I think there might be some people on this list more knowledgeable than me
on this computer stuff.  The more people there are, the more brain storming
and ideas.

We're not likely to hear from anyone else on this list.  Is that what you're

asking?  We could invite a few more people to get opinions and ideas if you 
thought that would help.  Keep in mind, I don't have any agenda or 
egotistical plans about starting or re-creating (as we're calling it) the 
list, I just want us all to be on a list where the moderator is accessible 
and involved.  The web site and customized footers with freelists are 
bonuses (in my opinion), but not absolutely necessary.  Incidentally, 
freelists is pretty popular, but not as well known as yahoo, so I don't know

that we can rule out freelists by saying no one has ever heard of them.
