efforts fixing the archive is that there was no "drive" due to poor use of
the Subject header in emails on the list. The suggestion to send Daryl
something was buried in the middle of an email with the subject "Archive
updates", it was one of six with the same subject and I am sure most just
blew off reading it.
We need to change the subject line when the thread wanders off the original
topic.

PS. The Google desktop search is awesome for finding old emails fast.

Hope the drive is much more successful than when Daryl spent countless
days/hours writting programming and restoring the archives mail
collection.... from my saved inboxes! He got a cool $15 from all the
appreciative list members....and those two guys (thanks R&W) didn't need any
of that information anymore!!

Subject: List fund raiser?
haveMike, have you given any thought to having a list fund raiser? Do you
thisa Paypal account or an easy way for someone to send a donation?
Like a lot of others I also use the Matronics lists by Matt Dralle. Every
November he has a fund raiser to support his lists. He just published
sendyear's list of fund raiser contributors. With 969 contributors,
conservatively, he probably brought in $20,000 and possibly closer to
$50,000.
Obviously the numbers here would be tiny (okay, minuscule) compared to
Matt's so I doubt we could put your kids through college :), but even a
small amount could help with back up drives, etc.
I suspect you do this as a hobby and wouldn't ask for donations via the
list. If you don't want to publicly publish a way to send a donation,
me your address off list.
Thanks,
Scott
