Well I just wanted to throw the idea out there.

I understand the resistance to change too.

I will note that the list is run on a single pc at someone's house and that
person is gracious enough to host it, but is not really involved in the
community anymore. With the dwindling membership and traffic here I just
worry that someday it will just be gone.
