To all,

Gerry (the system that vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com runs on) occasionally takes a
day or two off.  When this happens, "Test", "Is the list down?" and similiar
posts just get queued.  This situation is exactly what the Spare Vanagon list
on onelist.com is there for.  The 400+ volks who are subscribed there KNOW if
and when Gerry goes "tango-uniform".  If you really want to know what's going
on (or you just can't stand to be without Vanagon discussions) point your
browser to http://www.onelist.com, sign up, and subscribe to vanagon.

Note, this is not an automated process.  When Gerry goes down,  the
messages/traffic are NOT automatically shifted to the Onelist server.
However, the messages that are sent to vanagon@onelist.com are archived at at
http://www.onelist.com/archives.cgi/vanagon and one of these days, David and I
will get together and figure out how to dump them into Gerry.
