Dear list members:

It has just come to my attention that Yahoo which has taken over Geocities
is now claiming that all articles and pictures uploaded to their servers
are their property.  Due to that, I am taking down the website
immediately.  Does anyone know of another free website that doesnt' make
this type of claim.

Look at :
http://www.wired.com/news/news/email/explode-infobeat/technology/story/20472.html
for further information.

I simply will not allow material I've written for free to be taken over by
a company that hasn't paid me for the rights to that material.

I must apologize for doing this so suddenly.  I will save the pages on my
system (and hope it doesn't crash before we find another site to upload it
to).

I'm also asking SUITE101 if they would be willing to sponsor a rather large
site if we add all the pictures we want!  Another possibility might be the
Mace's Cactus and Succulent Mall.
