top 20 or so posters, and the rest will follow--if they're even
paying attention. Just leave a sign on the front page and a few
messages saying the conversation has moved and those that want to
come along will. The moderator can also send out a message to those
who have opted out of getting the emails. If you sign up and choose
not to get the emails it's very easy to stay subscribed to the goup
and forget about it. So I wouldn't guess that a large percentage of
the "thousands" of subscribers are even paying attention. I've been
a member of this group for over a year, but I didn't become active
in it untill late last summer. I really didn't pay a whole lot of
attention to what was going on here much prior to that for whatever
reason.
