email stored or send me a different address, so I don't have to do this

Folks, the FFML is not a personals board. Please don't use it to send
messages that are directed at only one person. (This includes not only
"How can I get in touch with so-and-so?" but also "Why isn't so-and-so's
web site working?" and "When is so-and-so going to post a new chapter?"
etc.) For one thing, it probably won't even work; if the person you're
trying to reach can't receive mail from you, he or she probably can't
receive it from us either. But even if that weren't true, it's a
disservice to the other 1800 or so active subscribers to spam a personal
message out to the entire list.

We generally deal with this sort of thing privately, but as there's been
quite a lot of it lately, I thought a public post on the matter
appropriate. I don't mean to pick on Larry F by singling him out for
public censure. He's not the only one guilty of this. But if it keeps
up, we may need to start issuing bans for it instead of just warnings.
BTW, feel free to send any of these queries to the list admins
(ffml-admins@anifics.com). We may or may not be able to help you reach
the person you're trying to contact, but it can't hurt to ask -- you
can't get banned for writing to us.
