Re: Retracting the CD offer.

Ken,

This is a crying shame.

You have posted many times over the last month or two if your intent
to provide said CD.

Why didn't those people contact you then ?


and regards copywright, the Yahoo Terms of service are linked on the
bottom of every web post. Yahoo has the right to use any post for
any reason at any time for thier own benefit. so anyone's posts are
not really copyrighted exclusivly to them.

And if it means that someone wants their posts secure I would prefer
to NOT CHANGE THE LIST. Searching is a PIA, but the information is
just too valuable.
