Greetings all. This is sort of a test message to see if I've been subscribed, since I've gotten lots of weird messages from the majordomo but none from any group members yet. So this isn't a total waste, I'll say that I used to be on this group quite a number of years ago (8 maybe) and had the chance to attend a Sacramento hotluck when we lived in California. I'm now in Seattle area and looking for chileheads up here in the Northwest. Nice to be back and hope this is working OK. Richard
