If there should happen to be a kind soul out there who happens to have a complete collection of the list's days before Stephen transferred it, please let me know. I'd be delighted to have a complete run, going back to the beginning! (We get several thousand hits a month on the list archive, and this number keeps growing.) Cheers (and fingers crossed that there's a packrat who has the old list traffic). --tim
