There weren't? They were there when I joined, if I remember correctly.
After an initial post, I spent several weeks reading them from the
beginning. I think someone brought them to my attention, so I more or less
'caught up' with what had been posted prior to my joining. That'd be a lot
of reading for a newbie to the list now. Still worthwhile to check for
specific topics, but it would be a chore to go through all the posts. In
any case, I enjoy reruns. I never know when a new voice will add a new
slant to an old subect. Not to mention that the archives tend to be cranky
and lock up when I go there.

See! And your password just strikes me as funny! Doesn't bother me at all.
'Course I might feel differently if it'd been me with the inventive moniker.
I expect I'd live with it and laugh about it while wearing a red face,
though. Or I might feel it was exactly right considering some of the
trouble I had with Yahoo.
