[Dialogue] New lists ready

[Janice & Abe Ulangca]

Please don't give up hope on me when you don't get an immediate answer.  Yesterday I had to go to the emergency room at 2:30 a.m.  Nothing really serious, lungs were clear and no heart attack, but they decided I had a recurrence of congestive heart failure.  I was on oxygen all day yesterday.

I was thinking that people would have the welcome message, followed by our second message announcing  the new Dialogue (on Dialogue).  But it really doesn't matter one way or the other.

So was I confused.  Thought you had to access Dialogue with a password each time one sent a posting.

I think we need to be especially careful on emphasizing this and what it is really used for, that they can use the listserv as before, never have to know about or change their password unless they want to access and make changes on their page.  Is that overkill?
