Next message: Bob Clinkenbeard: "Re: lv-ab: The list was down Saturday to Thursday."
As offered in the past, my brother and I (both on the list) have the
capability to host a list-serv very similar to the current list. If you
all would be interested, we would be glad to take it over. Although
Yahoo seems like a viable option, I personally hate advertisements, I
think requiring a yahoo address and signup will cause us to lose
subscribers, and I don't think it is plain text (more bandwidth required
for cruisers). So unless yahoo groups has changed since I last tried it
and hated it, I would vote for keeping a plain text list such as it is
today. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

p.s. Vern, are you still up for this?
