It's good to hear some energetic new voices in this marketplace of ideas! (By the way, it is indeed a list -- a mailing list -- for those of us who are sticklers for accuracy of details.) And since the traffic gets archived on a web site, it also becomes a series of web pages. Anyway, we try to run a pleasant place where intimidation is discouraged. Cheers and a big welcome to newcomers and for those who are finding themselves encouraged to speak up for the first time! --tim o'connor
