It wasn't much of a problem when I started this list some 15 or > 16 years ago, but it has grown. > > I am able to "gateway" the board, since I administer both, to the surname list, thus > any message posted to the board is automatically sent to the list.

This list is for Phillips research - off-topic messages may cause the sender to be unsubbed from the list. > > Thanks, good luck in your research, and if I can help, you know where to find me. > > Cal Phillips, Listowner/Admin. > [email protected] > > > Thank you. > > Cal Ph > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message _________________________________________________________________ Personalize your Live.com homepage with the news, weather, and photos you care about.
