Hello, is this thing on?  Is anybody out there?

Yes,  but I am getting a little fustrasted at seeing 4 or 5 messages a day

>from people who ask if the list is still running.  The reality of Internet

that a message can take from 10 seconds to months to get from point A to
Point X and then to you (Point 3).  Sometime a server will hold messages
for day's at a time. Could at lease wait a day or two before sending a
test message?

Actually, I suspect the lack of mail is more due to the departures of folks
who only have school accounts.  When they return in 2-3 months, the volume
will go back up.
