It is hard to really know how many read this list, since many read the web 
interface and are not counted.  Before Aaron decided to stop the annual 
unsubscribe/resubscribe process, many were repeatedly kicked off the 
LISTSERV and went to lurking via the web.

Moreover, I might mention here that many of that group do try to register 
and post via the web, but are frustrated by the unituitive, gotcha, 
aspects of that interface, which works tolerably well after a person gets 
to know its quirks, but can really put a person off initially when doing 
anything other than reading and searching.
