URL? Googled for sheldon group, got about 100 hits but all financial sheldon lathe group got a bunch including one at yahoo, but I am stuck in signup hell. I am a member of another mailing list, and they insist on say I already exist and can't join again. Had them send me a new account key, which of course went straight to the spam folder. I finally got around that, but now I am forced to subscribe, we'll see how that goes.
