I see where you're coming from, but there's probably more than me on
here who are just lurkers, and we'd be excluded because we don't post.
I've been signed up to the list for months (nearly a year?) purely
because I'm interested in LF. I don't have the equipment or the space
for LF operation but I've followed the achievements that have been
made between some of the members on this list and it always makes for
interesting reading.

Running a mailing list isn't difficult, but Yahoo groups is probably
the best way to go. Those who want to get the messages by e-mail
notice no difference, and there's the occasionally useful extras if
needed.

My 2p worth!
