Moderator's notes: Growing Listsize & Web Site

[Guest guest]

Hi folks,

Just wanted to let you know that we are now at 33 enrolled

subscribers, not counting about 13 people that need to be added manually

as soon as ONElist (our host) can do this.

One of the problems that affects other similar lists is sheer size &

volume of posts. While this is a fully moderated list, the host doesn't

have the capability for the moderator to edit posts, & I really don't

like the idea of changing peoples submissions anyway. I have given some

thought to how to keep a list personal & helpful when it get large, but

I would welcome other peoples' ideas. I'm hoping to have this remain

YOUR list as much as possible.

Also, there are some good web resources, but I haven't compiled them

& am wondering if some members would be willing to help do this & start

planning a web page for the list users & others.

Since this is a bit 'off topic', anyone interested can contact me at

chronic_pain@.... I also have the capability to setup all kinds of

information on autoresponders, and if people have compiled information

on various conditions, resources & anything else pertinent, we can make

them available by autoresponder. This is a great help to people first

facing probless or with recurring-type questions, & will take some

strain off the list in the long-run.

Welcome to everyone who recently joined, & I want to complement

everyone for trying to use the list well.

Ken
