And if they told you and you told someone else, you could be brought up on ethics charges. You're a troublemaker for even asking. It is for the best that you do not know, trust them. :-) Me, I'm just going to sit over here and drool. I love everything about MYPTG, and I especially love my leaders. I love them all. Oh yes, I do!!

Which is what I've been saying all along, mostly alone. If they'd fix the character set, so we can have technical discussions with appropriate characters instead of displaying HTML garbage in text only format, and allow us to send mail and receive, attach and receive attachments from our email client instead of having to log on to the X-creature to do it from the browser, we would have all the basic functionality of the old pianotech list except the short lag time for posts to show up. I'd like that fixed too, unreasonable as that is. I know it's unlikely, but I think if someone offers a "legacy" format that ostensibly works with an email client, it ought to actually work, and somewhere in the organizations involved, someone ought to at least simulate caring enough to give it an honest attempt and hold HL to producing it. Otherwise, the death of [pianotech] will be it for the bulk of subscribers. Anyone got the latest numbers on comparison of [pianotech] subscribers to [PTG pianotech] subscribers? Ron N
