Les,
Please don't go back into "lurk mode" just yet!
I don't know how much of a pain in the butt it may be, but do you think you
can add this info, especially the address for the off-site archive, to the
letter you send out to new jimdles?
I would imagine that you have 4 separate form letters to welcome newcomers.
I think it would have been a great help to me to know about a searchable
Joni archive.
Thanks,
Sylvia
