As I showed with the email from Jim, I suspect he was planning something, but I sort of suggested he continue to stay with internet for better access to fans and I would continue to support the group; little did I know that maybe he was asking me to take over... If I had said totally 'yes', then maybe we wouldn't have this little dilemma.

I'll look at getting in contact with Yahoo and see if they can help us. I agree we need more than one moderator. In good news, I can view the user list, but I can't adjust much; just approve, ban or change mail settings. Hopefully I'll get a promotion of access, then we won't need to bother with a mirror group.
>Randy's and Cheetah's idea is good as well. I'm assuming a front web page would have to be set up if the group goes that way for either system.

I'd guess we could find an old Skunked front page and go with that? Sure we'll find something.
>See what Yahoo Customer Care says. Scrapper, might get some more control over the group.

Cross your claws; here's hoping!

And the winning Lotto numbers... Don't think Jim would have written anything down, but still probably worth asking.
