> This seems to be the consensus.  I agree with it.  And I would suggest that keeping retired lawyers involved with the bar is something that should apply to the entire bar, and not just the real property section.

> Hello Fellow Listservers:
>  
> I wanted to provide another reminder to all listserv users of the scheduled updates and upcoming changes to both the Real Property and Probate & Trust Listservs.
>  
> Starting February 1st, 2019, both listservs will only be accessible by WSBA RPPT members. The RPPT Executive Committee decided after much deliberation and input that the listservs should be an exclusive member benefit.  Starting February 1st, 2019, you will need to login into the www.wsbarppt.com <http://www.wsbarppt.com/> website using your section login and password in order to register for the listserv, access the listserv archives, and/or unsubscribe to the listserv.  
>  
> Further, the Executive Committee has approved the adoption of new guidelines, rules, and general etiquette for the listserv.  These will be posted on www.wsbarppt,com <http://www.wsbarppt,com> under the listserv tab for all members to see and review.
>  
> Lastly, beginning on February 1st, 2019, all listserv postings will contain a disclaimer in the footer reminding all that while the listservs will be restricted to RPPT section members, not all section members are practicing attorneys.  Section membership is open to law students, non-practicing members of the bar, and even some non-attorney professionals in related fields such as title officers, real estate agents, and escrow agents.  
>  
> The Executive Committee believes that these changes will improve the listserv experience for section members and deliver value to members as one of many available section member benefits.
>  
> I hope to make the transition to the members only listserv as seamless as possible  If you experience any difficulty during the transition, please feel free to email me and I will do my best to respond and assist you.
