Let me try this again, with a little further explanation. I have set the lists to private for YOUR protection. It just keeps people from sending junk email to you through the mail lists. For those of you who were with us when we were wiped out on MAISER from junk mail, you will understand this decision. The same junk mailer that killed the maiser server has struck again on the rootsweb server. I could have waited until you were inundated with 'spam' but decided to be a little proactive. So for those of you who are suddenly jumping all over me for making the lists private--no all the facts first. By making the lists private all I am asking is for someone to send on little email and subscribe before posting. I AM NOT EXCLUDING ANYONE FROM DOING THIS. ALL I AM DOING IS USING A LITTLE CONTROLL--FOR YOUR PROTECTION. If you wish to leave any of my lists because of this, then its your lose. If you think I'm a little hot about this, then you are right. I don't need the abuse.
