Well Spencer, looks like you win.
I will no longer be keeping the e-mail list alive. It has not been used in months. This is probably due to the lack of awareness to the club as a whole, but even then, most of the strong membership has moved here (with the exception of Malcolm...one day we'll get him on here - but I think his work has something to do with that).
And Sean and Lara, and Dave, and.....we need them too. Or maybe I do. Maybe I'm lonely and gong crazy out here because everyting is dark, and white.
anyways, the listserve is dead. any objections?

RE: Club e-mail List
what are you talking about?
RE: Club e-mail List
exactly.
there was a Yahoo group I created a long time ago, about the same time as Spencer started the web site. This is why I said he wins. My form of communication is dead/dying.
Essentially, a single e-mail address you could send a message to, and then it would go to everyone on the "list". you also had to be on the list to send messages to prevent abuse. I kept a fairly strict control of who was on it (there was always the odd guy asking about which IR alt worked in a 510, but I never let it make it through. not a member/ not the pot of the list), therefore it never really grew like this site. it was meant to be a club service only. there were also a bunch of local non-members (mainly VIDE people) who just wanted to keep in touch becuase they no longer got a newsletter, and there wasn't really a website.
For a couple years it got used quite a bit keeping people up-to-date on meetings, and it helped plan a bunch events, but it has died in use over the last year or two. Like I said, lack of awareness. there hasn't been anything in the newsletter for years.
