I joined the list when it was still hosted on a computer at UC Davis. I 
remember Mike saying that he lost several hundred members when he moved it 
to Globalgarden.com. I also hosted a list for several years on Globalgarden 
and the sign-up got screwy when the majordomo program was spammed. 

I was invited to join a group which is hosted on MSN.com in March and I'm 
probably going to remove myself because I never have been able to post to it 
and my e-mail program can't interpret all of the emoticons so most of the 
messages look like garbage. 

The plain text here works fine for me.
