Last Friday we were about 8 strong including the welcome first appearance of prolific newsgroup poster Gary a.k.a. "sputnik"
Which reminds me at least one corfid contributor had not even heard of the newsgroup but then news travels slowly (obviously) to the far reaches of Canada!!
For anyone who cares to make a note of this short url try:-
http://www.newsgroup.shorturl.com
That takes you straight to the opening page as shown by Google Groups complete with a handy search box to enable you to search the archives of over 25,000 threads going back to the commencement of the newsgroup (alt.music.lightfoot) in 1995 I think it was.
Alternatively and recommended use a newsreader programme or configure your browser, or if you use it Outlook Express to show the newsreader direct from your ISP.
This is much quicker as your postings appear almost immediately not many hours later as with Google
Anyway this very evening Ed will probably be on bar duty again and quite possibly Wendy will make it from Newfoundland to meet Ron from Vancouver
time as usual 9 pm EST
