Certainly Dennis, you are to be commended for stepping up to the plate 
for hosting this list and keeping communications going.  And the number 
of subscribers is a testament to the fact that this list was needed at 
a time when bit.listserv.coco was rampant with junk.

I'm not advocating a full and rapid termination of the list, but rather 
a gradual, if testy, return to posting to bit.listserv.coco.  If that 
bodes well, then we should gravitate toward that medium.  Somehow 
integrating the two would bridge that gap.
