I want to thank Russ for Bulk e-mailing this list for me, for
what seems like years now. On December 5, Yahoo Mail will no longer
support my browser (Netscape 3.0), so instead of going out and buying
a new computer or software, I changed my e-mail address.
It can bulk e-mail. So if there are any comments about this dance
list/newsletter, let me know

Till next time!
