Carol,
Thanks for clarifying that. I had forgotten that the Blackbelly list was not a yahoolist.

The Blackbelly Listserv is not a Yahoo group. It is a privately
hosted listserv that I pay for and maintain on my domain host's
server. Although I am often criticized for not hosting this group on
Yahoo (which allows HTML text and this listserv does not), I believe
Yahoo is unsafe and leaves its members vulnerable to spammers, not to
mention Yahoo's blatant abuse of its members' privacy. My
subscribers' privacy has always been of utmost concern to me.

Messages sent to the Blackbelly Listserv are archived at
http://www.mail-archive.com/blackbelly%40lists.blackbellysheep.info/
These messages can indeed be Googled. However, posters' email
addresses are not viewable. I believe this provides the most secure
privacy possible for Blackbelly Listserv subscribers while ensuring
that the information in this list is readily available to people who
can benefit by it. There is no  way to prevent messages sent to this
listserv or, for that matter to any Yahoo group, to escape search engines.

If anyone has concerns or comments regarding this list, please email
me privately at celk...@critterhaven.biz .

Carol Elkins
Listserv Owner
