Hi Jim -
I would say 'keep it'. If a 'new' Drakester is looking for information, and searches on Drake, the more 'finds' the better.
There are a LOT of misconceptions and 'everybody knows' misinformation about Yahoo groups that scares some folks off, and this would be a
place for them. Yes, Yahoo could shut down tomorrow, in which case a 'backup' would be very handy! :-) The account 'hi-jacking' is way
overblown, I suppose we've had four or five in the last year or so, and it's easily avoided by NOT storing your address book on Yahoo mail.
There is absolutely no reason you can't subscribe to more than one list, so there is NO additional load on anyone but Jim!
DrakeRadio has over 1000 members, and runs from 400 to over 600 posts/month. That's too much for some, and I understand that.
The more the merrier, and the more resources the better! Thanks for running the list Jim!

Guys,
It seems that there hasn't been much activity on this list since January.
Do you want me to keep it going?
It seems like most of the action is on the DrakeRadio YahooGroup.
