RE: Dead or at least dying.
I agree Mike. I don't like BP because it is overwhelming and somewhat
impersonal compared to this list. I have made more friends through this
list than anywhere else in cyberspace. Anyone can make an acquaintance
through a chat room, but many of the people I've met on this list have
really been there when I needed them. These and others also are always
there for me if I have a question. I think this list still serves a very
valuable purpose!
Just my 2 cents.

This site appears to have some technical issues. Posts emailed to
pumpkins@mallorn.com do not show up. Posts emailed to pumpkins@hort.net do
not show up 100% of the time. I think part of the reason we are seeing such
a low volumn of postings here is due to these problems. I emailed the
webmaster (Christopher Lindsey - lindsey@mallorn.com) Tuesday regarding
these issues but never received a reply.
I would rather see this list resurrected than abandoned. Its the only
message board I post to. Lower volumn can be a good thing if the content
that is there is to the point and helpful. Noone wants to sift through
hundreds of posts of cybercrap looking for a single tidbit of usable
information.
Granted, this board's format is pretty dated. But in reality, how fancy does
it really need to be?
Just my opinion,
Mike
