[Vision2020] Proposal: Change Listserv Name

Sun Aug 3 23:04:33 PDT 2014

You seem to of changed your mind from your prior post:

"I vote nay---I delete many messages, but often there is a gem. And as I
don't go to the Market (after being a vendor at two during the week, I just
can't get up the energy), but enjoy the pictures. I LIKE "Caturday" 'cause
I'm one of those crazy cat lovers. As I am on dial-up and they take a while
to download, I could complain....not gonna.

I think the 3-per-day would be good, but I'm not wedded to it. I would also
like to read more local discussion...
Debi R-S"

For what it is worth-I agree.  Tom does often post gems.
