RE: Mourning the passing of this list

Square Foot Gardening List - http://myweb.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Hi Gloria,

Apparently all it needed was a gentle nudge and some cpr. I believe an old
quote would be apropos, the sqft list said: "Reports of my death have been
greatly exaggerated". It's one of my favorite lists and I hope it stays
lively for a long time.

Charlie

I'm a lurker, but I've enjoyed this list.  Please tell me it's not dying.
