RE: Should this list be shut down?

The other day, I met a very interesting person, Dr Axel Brun, also here in
Brisbane, Australia, who is also on this list and posted a while back...and
he met at least one other person, also from Brisbane, on this list that he
didn't know previously. so you never know. I'd say leave it open for now.

I've been on this list since 2000 and posted maybe three times

Hi Erik,

I'm still on this list. I'm afraid I don't have anything interesting to 
say, but I'm always hopeful that someone else will contribute something 
worth discussing...

I'm glad the Infoanarchy wiki is still up and alive, I haven't check it 
out in a very long time.

I'm not worried about one virus email coming in through this list when 
I've got 1500+ junk emails a day from elsewhere.

Sorry that doesn't help you decide whether to keep the list going or 
not. I admit there is a good chance I wouldn't notice if it 
disappeared, but I also think it might have some potential yet...

Anybody else still interested in discussing stuff here?

- Chris
