Chris es Co
I can manage with the present reflector if it works fb if
not I will manage like I have done this past week.
Yahoo could be useful for cave divers, gas and water pipe
chasers !! This reflector works for those above ground with
antennas.
Watch the flak !!

group instead .....PLEASE
With the latest outage (5 days already) may I again suggest
that the LF-reflector migrates to a Yahoo group?
In over 10 years I
have rarely had delays in messages, outages, or problems with any group to
which I belong or moderate.
Instead they have had these
advantages:
- Messages can be read on the web if preferred (saves cluttered
in-boxes)
- There is rarely a delay of more than a few minutes before messages are
received.
- All messages are archived and searchable.
- Large files can be stored.
- Photos can be stored - 100Gigs worth.
- Links can be stored/shared
- Videos can be stored.
- Polls can be run.
- Messages can be vetted if preferred (by a number of moderators to
speed up the process)
- Difficult members can be banned in exceptional circumstances.
- Spam messages can be filtered
- Calendars can be set up (for sked times, news of tests etc)
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.
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.
Please, think about it again.
