Nice note, Holly, I think you speak for many of us in thanking Brian,
Kerwin et al.  I'm sure Sonny will be able to continue sending us the
morale boosting Friday Flowers, if he has the time and inclination.  My
sense is that the new List won't differ much from the old one in tone
and sense of community.  If you look at the terms of participation for
the old MU-Ohio List, now overwritten on the SAA site but still
available through Google cache  at http://shrinkster.com/iam , you'll
see that they were much like the new ones.  The new ones are more
detailed but I don't think they were posted with an extent to exclude
the popular Friday Flowers.  Not at all, at least, that's my gut sense,
for what it's worth.

Kerwin & Brian are probably too busy to notice this now, but I just
want to 
say thanks to both of them (and probably some others I don't know
about, too!) 
for their work on this project.  Last I checked there were typically
something 
over 3000 subscribers on A&A, and so many different ISPs involved that
I find 
it amazing that so many have successfully switched over already!  

I know for a fact that my subscription was being fixed manually last
night 
(after hours) from what appeared to be off-site.  Wow!  I am
impressed.

Bunches and Bunches of thanks, and I'd send flowers, but I think Sony
is 
sending them tomorrow.  (He can still send us the end of the week
morale booster, 
I hope!)
