Ray, I couldn't agree with you more regarding the content of the list. It is excellent, and very very helpful, however, on the admin side of things, the list management has gone to complete shit! O wow, did I really just say that? Mods, I just cussed! You gonna write me off list and chew me out? Probably not? I'm totally with you Ray. I've written the mods countless! times, and believe me, it does no good. Frankly, not that I'd try it to find out, but if I was to flame someone on list, and was to say one of the most vulgar things ever, I doubt we'd find that I'd get banned.
Hey, shall we bring Maheen on board the list? OK, now? I'm being a smart ass. Obviously! I'm kidding! Chris Gilland.

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.

To put it bluntly, how can we expect any new members with this kind of crazy scheme? Do we want new members or not? IF so, what's the fastest way to get them on board?

She tried subscribing herself but got an error message saying it was by invite only. I'm sure I just joined without somebody inviting me. When I tried to go to the website - the link at the bottom of this email - I got a 404 error. What's going on, and how can my friend join up? Thanks.
