The following message from WWPublish indicates that CrashList may be halted
for a while, because of the collapse of the dot.com economy. Funny how
capitalism crashing affects all the wrong people. I don't wanto to go back to
egoups/yahoo. It may be possible to find some other solution pro tem and if
anyone has any ideas, let me know off list.

In the meantime, PLEASE COPY ALL YOUR MESSAGES TO ME AT
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Do not send messages only to the listserve until the problem is resolved.

Best wishes and good luck to all; no doubt we shall find a way to carry on.

Mark Jones

Subject: [Admin] Possible shutdown of our network connection


Hi,

We were informed this morning that Northpoint, the company
that provides us with our broadband Internet connection, that
our connection will be shut down. This is what their message
said: "The cessation of services to our customers and
the complete shut down of our network is imminent."

This is acutally the result of the collapse of the dot-com economy.
Northpoint entered banruptcy about a month ago. Now it is
closing down completely.

We are working on a replacement, but no possible solution
will be without disruption of service (at least none that I know
about at this time.)

I will let everyone know if I learn of an exact time of shutdown.

We are not "going out of business." No, in fact, we think
that the emerging capitalist crisis  will give us great
opportunities for "expansion."

However, this is a possible disruption that we have no
control over.

I am sorry to have to give you this news and urge everyone
to do whatever they feel is necessary to continue their
lists (or wait it out with us). Believe me when I say that this
is even more of a disruption for us at WW than it will be
for you and we'd do anything we could to avoid it.

Gary
