Folks,

Here's my small contribution to the future form of the 
Urth and Whorl lists.

Personally I prefer two, as I find that it makes threads 
easier to follow, but it's not a big issue; I could deal 
with one big list, if that's what others prefer.

I'd rather not have advertising if it can be avoided, but 
I'd much rather have advertising than no list at all.  I 
imagine it won't be too difficult to ignore ads.

Oh yes indeed.

Well, this isn't advice or a suggestion, but I'm very grate-
ful to you for running this list for us, and for keeping it 
up even in the face of danger and disaster.  Thank you.
