As many of you know Mac McGruder took over for Ken and Justin in hosting and
covering the costs for eLists a few months ago. Sadly we received the
following from Mac just the other day - there isn't a lot of time for
someone else to take over so this in fact may be an end to these lists that
have run in one form or another for many years - and I've been moderating
them for over 10 years. If you can possibly help contact me off list - Glenn

This past month has been a very difficult time for me.  My mom has been
diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma.  

Unfortunately, I will no longer be able to host elists.  I am taking over my
mothers bills (mortgage, car, etc) while she is on chemo therapy and will be
unable to work.  Therefore I must cut expenses where I can.

If anyone is interested in taking over the list, I will provide whatever
assistance to help with the transition.  If no host can be found, then I
would suggest moderators transitioning the list to a free host like yahoo
groups.  Not the ideal solution, but it is a free one.  I will backup the
archives and anyone interested in having them I will make arrangements to
get you a copy.  

If anyone has any questions let me know.  I plan on pulling the plug
December 14 (before the next billing cycle on the server).  I apologize for
the late notice, however I have been living in a hospital for the last 2
weeks.  If there is a real issue with the short period of time, I will
consider keeping it on for another month if a host is found and needs some
time to setup or what not.  Unfortunately, the meter is running for me, so I
have to make adjustments quickly where I can.

Thank you all for all your efforts over the years.  I wish I could have kept
the list going strong for many years like Ken and Justin did.  Unfortunately
that is not the case.

Thanks,

--Mac
