But, from what I’ve seen (and heard (and read)) so far it is probably going to be more complicated and cumbersome than I’m going to have patience for.

It appears that the new format is a real bust. It is probably a waste of a great deal of our members' money. I wonder if it is not possible to cancel it and continue with our old tried and true lists. It would be a shame to lose the knowledge which we gain from people such as Ron Nossaman, Del Fanrich, Ron Overs, and quite a few others who are a real font of knowledge.<br><br>Terry Beckingham RPT<br><br>At 04:38 PM 3/8/2011 -0500, you wrote:<br><br><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Ron,<br><br>I talked with a number of individuals as well as being a list member since the days when it was hosted by Mr. Jack Reeves on the BYU server.
