[MBZ] Admin, the mailing lists

2017-06-02 Thread Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes
Okiebenz is way over our allocated disk space.  As in, we supposedly 
have I believe 18gb or something like that and are currently using over 
40gb.  I am surprised the hosting company has not thrown a fit yet.  
Anyway, most of the space it taken up by nearly 15 years of the 
archives.  We also had several dead lists that have not been used in 
many years.  I deleted these lists which included banned lite, vets, SL, 
linux, and a couple of others.  The remaining lists are still sucking up 
quite a bit of space.  I have contemplated moving to a new company as I 
see them advertised with no set storage space amount or something to 
that effect.  I am not sure what their definition of what is excessive 
though and it makes me nervous.  So, now it comes down to the archives.  
Does anybody actually access the raw archives on the server like this 
example for the MB list:


http://mail.okiebenz.com/pipermail/mercedes_okiebenz.com/

We also maintain a list archive via on online searchable database here:

http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/

The raw archives are not searchable, you just have to go into whatever 
month you want and you can sort by thread, author etc.  I am thinking 
about downloading the .txt files which appear to be much smaller than 
the actual archive files.  This should free up a lot of space.


So that is my question to everyone, does anybody see a problem with 
this?  I just want to make sure it is not a valuable resource people are 
using, since it is pretty much duplicated with the online searchable 
database anyway.

Just to give you an idea of how bad an idea that is and the real estate 
market in this town, you can on a regular basis buy empty lots in town 
for back taxes for about $400.  So if a person just wanted a lot to 
build a new house on, there are way cheaper ways to do it.

In my judgement, you would be huge dollars ahead, headaches ahead, and time

There, I fixed the trigger-point.  People, bears, other words are just
fine without further refinement using adjectives to discriminate

bears that are black versus other colors.  Do we have greater angst

broken off.  Hedge (or Osage Orange) is so hard I have never seen large limbs 
break off from storms.  It wasn't storming yesterday anyway.  I got to looking 
at it and I think lightning may have struck the tree.  Some of the limbs look 
blackened.   I don't really have a question, just thought it was interesting.  
Now I have get the chain saws out this weekend and cut it up.  The small limbs

Black bears clash with Mass. suburbanitesPublished: Friday, June 2, 2017

Scientists say black bears are moving into the more populated eastern half
of Massachusetts.

The state's black bear population has climbed from 100 in 1970 to an
estimated 4,500, and that figure is expected to accelerate.

The rise has pushed the population east toward more suburban environments,
inevitably leading to more encounters with humans.

The state is urging people to secure garbage cans, compost and bird feeders.

Just last week, the governor of New Hampshire stopped the euthanization of
three black bears trapped in the town of Hanover. The bears were
investigating trash cans and dumpsters (Nik DeCosta-Klipa, *Boston Globe*
,
June 2). *— NB*
