Hi, fellow listers

..I answer to all 3 lists, could the mail list admin please override 
the possible bio-energy and digestion list bounces?
I set follow-up/reply-to to the gas list.  We discuss a new message 
quote style guide draft in the making, possibly of interest to all 3 
lists here.

..it _can_.  Period.  If anyone can spare a box in their DMZ*, 
I can set up a mail list massage server for us the way we want it.

..(I'll need the ip-number or name of the box, and may need to 
have someone put a kick start diskette into and out of the box, 
everything else is done remotely over ssh*.  Email me the details.)
(DMZ*=demilitarized zone, slang for server zone for public access, 
web servers, ftp servers and mail transport servers should be here, 
behind a firewall, not behind a firewall and inside the _internal_ net.
Ssh*=open source secure shell, an encrypted telnet replacement.)

  Scenarios always come in sets of three:
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
