Why? Why do you seem to feel that you have some claim to Brin-L? Sorry, Erik, but Brin-L is going to die when we get kicked off of Cornell. If a group of Brin-L'ers decide to regroup on somebody else's private server and appoint a monkey as moderator, they certainly have every right to do so. The idea that every interaction of listmembers must produce an invitation for me and you just strikes me as a bit odd. JDG
