Maybe now is the time to send out that clarifying email. I read it as an obfuscatory announcement the old list will be dead, and the only functioning ones will be on Higher Logic's site, in spite of what they told us a couple of months ago. Meaning that you won't be able to use <> characters or ° or ¢ unless you log in (if you can) and compose on the site. Nor will you be able to attach or view files without also logging on. In other words, telling us that the old list - this one, in it's current functionality, would be around for the foreseeable future was a lie pending clarification to the contrary. If the PDA/text option on the new format worked like the old list software in the ways I listed above, with access to the archives, we would have everything we always had in functionality, as well as whatever new and improved features people see in the new format, and everyone would be served. I don't understand why that is impossible, and why it isn't even being addressed. Ron N
