Jochen, I would rather see myself publicly stoned for introducing such marginallly off-list topics as the ""City University of Santa Fe" and "non-phoney restaurants in Santa Fe" than see you take your marbles elsewhere. But personally, I think there is some use for the local conversation on FRIAM. Even when I was out there in the diaspora I loved the feeling that FRIAM was a community of people living in a PLACE.
Stick with FRIAM and help us strike a good balance. . Nick Nicholas S.
