general comment about the list. . .
Tom,
You are most welcome!
I do try to respond individually when I can. I feel hamstrung by the fact
that I must get to a library and then find a internet computer that is
available. . .and then get done with several lists before someone breaths
down my neck or the librarian is yelling at me. (And you all thought you
could only whisper in the library!) Some weeks I get more lucky than
others.
I think the tone of this list is very supportive and I hope, even though
some times the list is not as active as others, due to changing
circumstances in peoples lives, that people will feel welcome here as I
have.
There have been times, for whatever reason, that I have had to send one
generally posted thank you to many people who have taken time to respond
with help and I felt lower than worm dirt, but I hope people will sometimes
understand.
I do definitely agree that the idea of shared communication is a great one
and the format here really lends itself to that.
Fay
