[Milsurplus] Email list preferences

Thu, 24 Oct 2002 20:37:12 -0700 (PDT)

My T-368/BC-610/HT-4 list has 148 members and 75
T-368's in the registry!

That's a very narrowly focused subject and it's been
going for three years now.

There's really no way to tell if something like that
is going to work unless you actually try it.

My list is on Yahoo, it seems to work quite well,
don't care for the advertising, especially since I'm
not making anything from it,..... oh well.

I also just started a list for Military Generator sets
on Yahoo, that only has 13 people so far but it's only
been one month since I started it.
