Hello, You are so right; I only want to subscribe. I did not know that there are two lists. I only want to learn more about what we are doing and how to use the website better. If it is a good idea anyway to be on both, I am willing to do so. So I guess I need to look for that one also. What ever you suggest is fine with me. I want this matter to be cleared up as soon as possible.
