I could be stepping on his foot, here, but I don't remember Tim
expressing any interest in forming this list of writers. I know he is
terribly busy, with how many lists already? (I've often wondered,
incidentally, how Tim makes his living, but it's a rude
question...unless he'd want to offer that info on his own...) I think
one of us who have explicitly expressed interest should take it. I for
one don't have much time, only usually reading my mail once or twice a
week, but if no one else is willing to volunteer, I wouldn't grumble
about putting together all the addresses people want to send and sending
the list out to everyone on it. I absolutely cannot, however, be a sort
of leader or moderator of the list, mostly because I'm unqualified but
also because I'm not interested in authority, only in contributing. I
don't think we need a nominal leader, however; if it works, the list
will work on the problems democratically. And in any human
microcosm--even on the internet, one would expect--the natural leaders
always emerge on their own.
