What I don't understand is that just prior to the Yahoo silver club being formed, I had asked them to put one up and I offered to be the moderator of it. They said that they didn't think that there would be enought interest and declined, then a couple of weeks later added it anyway and put that guy on as moderator.
Not sure what is going on over there. Marshall Ivan Anderson wrote: > Had an ongoing discussion with sfropeem64 on the Yahoo silver club.
