Aloha,

In regards to the below comments a while back - ad sponsored listservs such as
Yahoo! groups and MS groups are spam magnets.  They may also insert ads that
directly contradict the intent and purpose of a given group.  In short,
TANSTAAFL.

Some ORGs and EDUs will host (ad-free) public-interest listservs, depending on
a variety of factors...ibiblio.org, which hosts this list, is one such, as is
CSF at colorado.edu (csf.colorado.edu)

A colleague and I offer completely open source software based domain hosting
and web/net services.  Yes, we charge money, because TANSTAAFL - and, we keep
it as affordable as possible for small independents, non-profits, ecological
do-gooders, etc..  No, there are no ads whatsoever (unless *you* want them
there in *your* own bit of cyberspace).  State of the art spam filtering, user
configurable, is included.  If interested in more info, contact me off-list.
