Al,

Do everyone a favor. Go use Gmane and tell us what exactly
you'd be able to do that Gmane does not already do.
It's archived, search-able (via keywords) and many, many
other very cool features.


Furthermore, if you hose a computer, you just jump on another 
machine with a web browser and search or get help. You first
register your listserv account with gmane and then you can 
post to the list via gmane.


very cool, try it, you just might like it!


hth
