Yes , data immortality is part of the internet 'concept' as the libel
cases show, its very difficult to erase any posting , once they have been
archived in un-controlled areas of the web ... if I type g0nbd into
Google I get About 8,190 results ..eek
The road to hell is paved with good intent ... problem is the
technology is part of the hobby , so the battles of valves V
transistors , cw V data , and now we have ftp V html ....all have there
respective camps ,
Now if it where a interest group for say Steam Traction engines, then
the html would win the day and very soon be filled with pictures of
'things' making steam ...
Classic case of .... 'if its not broken , don't try and fix it' or
Alligators and swamps may be hi

Yes Graham, quite right. I would not join just to vote then try to remove
my information. I have had this problem in the past and don't want it
again - you think you have done everything to delete your details from a
group, and they tell you it is so, but strangely you still keep receiving
messages, invites and so on. It seems you can never totally erase account
details, whatever they might say.
This whole situation is most unsatisfactory and very annoying.
Chris, G4AYT.

Slight democratic conflict .. you have to be a member of the yahoo
group to vote , therefore you have a declared interests in yahoo ,
so this should exclude your vote from the poll ....
