There IS an FRP mailing list. It used to be moderated by Chuqui the Plaid but due to the silly requirements at NSC that you work for a living, he had to give it up. The current moderator, and his address, were posted in the latest "net.announce.newusers" postings about mailing lists. I strongly suggest that y'all re-subscribe to that group and read the stuff in it, at least once in a while. It really is worthwhile even though it is all "old hat". Hutch
