Re: New group idea {possible change in rules from list owner}

Steve,

The problem is, it isn't my group now. It belongs
to 55 other members who'll have to make what
they will of it.

I can warn them the group will be deleted in X days
and go to jobshophomeshop.

The first question will be "Why?"
The next question will be "Well, who are you to decide
that?"

How do I answer the first question?
Do I say the CCED doesn't like that a member went
off on his own and started a Yahoo group?
That's the truthful answer.

Or do I make up something like "It's better for you".
Then the second question comes.

There's no support from here. I'd just ignore it.
