Lon,

Sorry if I misunderstood Greg's intentions. I was going by his statement in
his message of  April 22: "I don't have any illusions about the success of
the list being conditional upon my involvement, and from the initial
description it sounds like moving to another site might offer some
advantages."  This was followed by a sentence in his message of April 26: "
Since I have just forwarded the address list this Friday afternoon, it is
possible that Larry London may not get to some of the administrative tasks
until Monday or later."

These sentences were preceded by your own statement on  April 21: " NAFEX
is all volunteer and now Larry London has volunteered to set up the new
list site for NAFEX."

And on April 20, Greg said: "I view myself as the simple caretaker of this
list.  I think I have done an OK job so far.  I don't get paid and I never
expect to.  If the time has come to go to another system, I am agreeable,
<snip>  Larry London's list might fit all of those criteria."

Although no one said anything specific, all these messages left me with the
distinct impression that Larry London was going to be the new list manager.
If I am mistaken and Greg is staying, that is great news.
