    the k language group has been using listbox.com successfully for several

    years.  no ads, instantaneous dissemination.

     One thing I like about e-groups is the ability to view the messages

    over the web as opposed to getting everything through email

    (which fills up my email box).  Does listbox.com have that

    capability?

    I have no strong views either way about a possible move,

    and I shall be happy with whatever the group decides. Moreover,

    some of you know a lot more about alternatives than I do.

     But I would like to use this opportunity to thank Billy for

    setting up this group in the first place, for his continued

    maintenance, and for his most valued contributions. I am sure

    I speak for all of us.
