Hi Roger

Why not go for it and start it yourself.
We know some will not move so it will be an additional facility. Please 
make sure it is has no taboo, frequencies, modes, opinions, or subjects 
rules, and no childish sulking.

      The advantages go ON and ON and, frankly, I simply cannot
      understand why the change hasn't made years ago. With the problems
      this week it is surely time.<br>
      <br>
      To set up a new Yahoo group called "LF-reflector" (or whatever)
      would take about 30 seconds and migration to it by all interested
      members here would take about a day at most. All you need is to
      agree a group name, who owns it, who can moderate posts and some
      basic group ground rules/FAQs.<br>
      <br>
      Please, think about it again. <br>
