I would like to thank your all for your kind thoughts! I will miss the lute list myself.
Danny - the lute list archives at https://www.mail-archive.com/lute@cs.dartmouth.edu/ have no connection to me or my computers, except that the mail list robot sends a copy of each posting there. The archives there will stay as long as the mail-archive people keep them. There are also archives that I keep at https://home.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-old/archives/index.html which will go away. These archives are large files with many posts in each, suitable for downloading to your own computer and searching. Some people consider that fact that this list does not accept attachments a plus!
