There's also a lot of us who meander in and out of "poster" status. There are times when I post somewhat frequently and read nearly every post, and there are times when I often can't read but 2 or 3 of the more poignant threads, or even any at all. It varies seasonally for me based on my teaching/writing schedule and the weather. But I stay subscribed regardless. I'd imagine there are a number of folks on the list who do the same - allowing their activity levels to vary depending on what they've got going on at any given time. -- Chad Gard, KB9WXQ INCHASE: http://www.inchase.org Co-founder INSWA: http://www.insw.org Unit #21
