Personally, I agree.  I've got a friend who just got a Mac and wants to join.  
How's he supposed to do that if he can't join?  He's been trying for at least a 
fort night.  I was going to pass his e-mail on to the mod but I ain't heard 
back despite a public request to be contacted so I could fasilitate this.  Back 
in the day when I joined, it was-as I believe-a much better list and frankly, 
more open to helping Mac newbees also.  I got a lot of help from this list bakc 
in the day:  and, I still believe it to be a sound and very good list.  Jus 
wish it wasn't such a pain for Mac newbees to join.


Sincerely,
The Constantly Barefooted Ray
Still a very proud and happy Mac and Iphone user!
