Of course, this is one of the pleasures of this list!  Discovering new
"friends" from all over the world.  (So if anyone ever comes to Goteborg
(www.goteborg.se!), let me know!)

I know.  My mail was not directed towards Don who is doing a terrrific job
to keep this list alive and kicking.  If members of the list withhold their
different opinions we will all lose and the list will not be used to its
full potential.  That was my concern.
