[Origami] Happy Birthday-O! Re: Origami Digest, Vol 217, Issue 19

2024-05-23 Thread Karen Reeds via Origami
Thank you, Anne, for all the time, enthusiasm, and energy you’ve put into 
making the O-list such a global joy! 

About half an hour before I  saw your post, my 96-year-old aunt was catching  
up on 3 weeks worth of newspapers that had piled up while she was 
in rehab from a bad fall. I couldn’t resist teaching her caregiver, a lovely 
young nursing student, how to make the Traditional Newspaper Hat from the 
recycle pile (with some variations of my own). The caregiver plans to teach her 
little cousins next. 

Happy folding!
Karen

Happy birthday dear O-List! 
Anne, do you happen to keep a copy of the first (or some of the first) email 
exchange?

[Origami] Yet Another Birthday for the O-list!

2024-05-23 Thread Anne LaVin via Origami
Yep, the List is another year older.

For this is the day when, back in 1988 (!) the first messages were
exchanged in what would eventually migrate to this version of the List, run
on a private server my husband and I maintain, using the open-source
Mailman mailing list system.

Pretty much everything has changed a lot since then, but the List is still
getting used, so we're still here. Maybe this will be the year to migrate
things to a forum-style backend (I hear good things about Discourse) but
there will always be an email component for you diehards, never fear!

I hope everyone is having a grand day. Do go fold something, and come back
and tell us about it!

Anne
