Thanks. I will take you up on this offer.
I will send you the subscriber lists momentarily.

If you are going to archive and publish past postings, please be sure
that any email addresses get obfuscated so that they can't be harvested
by spammers. I just switched email addresses because I was getting so
much spam, and I would hate to have to do it again.
