Three cheers for Tim! 

 

Thanks so much...

 

And your email does raise the question of how this list serve or the underlying technology might evolve... I hear that Cisco is thinking that all this will be in live-video rather than text... eg we kind of walk into a visible space and say a virtual hello... or something like that... Maybe that will happen in ten years....

Again, Tim, thank you for your service to ICA/OE community through the years
... the glue that never stops giving.

> Sherwood Shankland wants to join this listserve. How does he do that?

I am happy to help with subscribing Sherwood. But just so you all know,
every list message has a footer (which may show as an
attachment) that contains information for how to get to screens that enable
you to to manage your membership, including subscribing and unsubscribing,
turning off mail, and so forth.

Also be aware that if you want to subscribe an additional email (without
necessarily having list mail go to that email), this is easily done, saving
me from having to manually approve your posts that come from the "wrong"
emails. Just ask me via private email if you need help with this. I am
seeing a fair bit of (legititmate) post attempts from non-subscribed emails.
Lately I've been marking those emails to just be always allowed to post, so
maybe this is a problem that is already solved. Still, list mindfullness and
understanding on your part is a good thing, unless you prefer to allow the
mysterious hand behind the screen to control all.

I continue to be in awe of how well old clunky obsolete email works to keep
us connected. Just don't try to explain mailing lists to your grandkids. In
the grand sweep of history email is a tiny blip on the timeline that is
coming to an end, but it still works for us, and might even outlast us!

Tim
