Well Len I posed it in private when I first decided I needed a break I
then did take a week break, but decided I want more than a week and I'm
going to take that come Monday, I have a right also to talk to some
friends in private not everything I do is on put out on this list.
The final reason for the decision is I did have one nice thing happen
and I want to devote some time to that, one of my Rodeo friends his
mother contacted me, she had read my cowboy's histories and liked them,
well she is also a fourth grade teacher and is recommending that my
histories be taught to her schools fourth grade class, I admit that
really surprised me and made me feel good :) I have had others in the
past ask me for my permission to use the histories and of course I have
no problem with that, but this is the first time I am having a school
ask to use it for all their 4th grade class, so I am going to knuckle
down and start doing some more of those for them to use :)
If no one is willing to take over as LO I am notifying Esosoft to close
down the list so I am not held financially responsible for it, and I
don't continue getting all the email related to running the list.
Short notice? Maybe, but a week's time is usually long enough to decide
if your willing to do something or not.
The financial cost for the list is inexpensive - it costs $50 for a
year. The biggest burden is time, you need to have some time every day
to devote to the list. I devote anywhere from 3-4 hours per day when a
trial isn't on going more if there is a trial. Now if someone decides to
be an inactive LO, then there really isn't much to do except for all the
unsubs/subs and bounced messages that the LO does, and of course reading
all the messages. I myself tend to be more of an active LO, trying to do
up reports and such and find interesting new things to discuss for the
list if possible, and of course a bit of research when members ask for
information and you need to go find it for them, so on and so on.....
If you find someone else that you are comfortable working with let me
know and I will forward your name on to Esosoft and talk to you in
private about the rest of the details. Of course I will be here to offer
any assistance that is needed :)
