This is dead to rights what I am hoping to set up. Something newcommer friendly and with folks willing to put up with 'So, why IS the Moon Red and why do we hate goats?" And, those who want to learn things in greater depth can either a) come here and listen or b) go and check out the various websites that folks have up and running. And friendly experts willing to give concise, helpful answers to those sorts of questions (without starting flamewars there) would probably be a good thing to have, if such a thing were possible.

But I just realized I have posted this several times to the list. Sorry, I am unused to digest modes! My appolgies to those who have sat through my modest rantings in the hopes that this makes a certain amount of sense. I also hope that I am not stepping on any toes or corns in my comments and commentary.

Apprentice, indeed! I guess I'm one.

Sincerely,
Jeff Kyer
