Re: RPG Mailing list

[Jim Langston <jimlangston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I signed up for the midrange-l list in the archive version.  So if I have
a question I can post it there then start scanning the message titles to
see if I got a reply.  The archive gives all the titles of the included
messages in the top of the e-mail so that makes it much more easier to me.

Also, when I have time I can glance at the message titles and see if there
is anything I could help with without having to wade through the ton of 
messages.

Regards,

Jim Langston

Me transmitte sursum, Caledoni!
