Hello Cavers,

Carl appears to be unable or unwilling to maintain the list, and
further appears to be unwilling to turn administration of the list 
over to someone who has the time and desire to maintain it.

I currently run the Florida Tech Diver list with about 120 subscribers.
I keep the distribution list clean and bounces to a minimum.  I would
be willing to start and properly maintain a *replacement* cavers list if
there is consensus on this.  I don't mean a moderated list of any
sort; I *don't* believe in list moderation.  I also don't intend to
compete with this list but rather intend to replace it.  However, I
will not go any further unless the current membership here
overwhelmingly believes this is a good idea and would be interested
in dropping this list in favor of the new one.

If Carl prefers, I'd be willing to maintain this list instead.  If
in the future he finds enough time to do this himself and would like
to take over again, that would be fine with me.

What do you all think?
