- Dear misc.activism.progressive (MAP) and ACTIV-L readers,
-
- This monthly auto-post is to inform/remind you that:
-
- ACTIV-L Readers:
-
- If you are having a difficult time dealing with the large
- volume of email subscribing to ACTIV-L entails, please be
- aware that a (nearly) identical "feed" is available on the
- UseNet newsgroup MAP; use "rn" or "nn" or "readnews" on a unix
- system; or "vmsnews" on a Vax, or see your system operator and
- ask about access to the UseNet newsgroups.
-
- IGC subscribers (PeaceNet and EcoNet): in (c)onferences,
- do "g misc.activism." (including the ending ".").
-
- Finally, on a personal note, just a reminder that I do not
- subscribe to ACTIV-L so please write/CC by email if something
- requires my personal attention. At the moment I am also
- working on a sort of "Survey" form for MAP and ACTIV-L readers
- to tell us about your likes and dislikes, and will try to
- organize this in a way that avoids having Rich and I flooded
- by unmanageable electronic tonnage.
-
- MAP Readers --
-
- If you would prefer to be on a mailing list, or, perhaps more
- plausibly, if you know someone who does not have access to the
- UseNet but would be interested in our material, here's how to
- join ACTIV-L [info enclosed at bottom].
-
- Finally, if you can help or just have ideas about how to improve our
- propagation (only 67$), or forwarding to FreeNet, various FIDO nets,
- CompuServe, BBSs, etc, please let us know. And to everyone -- if you
- have ideas for improvement, or complaints, or requests, again,
- please drop us an email note. And, of course, please "Spread the Word"
- to your friends about MAP and ACTIV-L.
-
-
- Regards,
-
- Harel Barzilai (harelb@math.cornell.edu), co-moderator.
