NFC: ADMIN - Not Yelling! :) - List Change ... ?

The question and suggestion of moving the list over to a Yahoo Group has
been brought up before. . . . . This has a number of advantages, and some
disadvantages.  I'd like to bring it up before the list, and see what
everyone thinks.....

Advantages:
Most of these are behind the scene type things.  The big advantage is that
we can put a link on the NFC page, "Subscribe to our mail-list," and be done
with it.  More or less electronic subscription is a definite plus.

Disadvantages:
You have to go thru Yahoo to subscribe and unsubscribe, although you will
still have e-mail access to do both of these.  There are ads on the bottom
of messages, and more HTML mail is available.  Basically,t he only big one I
see is that you'll see a blurb on the bottom, "Get a such and such for this
great price......."  I doubt anyone on the list is using anything less than
a 56K modem, so the extra four or five lines of text isn't a biggy. :)

Joshua.
