The only possible problem I see is, that sometimes others get mail 
from the listserver faster than I do.  _Much_ faster.  Remember when 
we tried to do the chain story-writing?  charghwI' posted one line, 
and then Matt followed it up.  This was a Tuesday (I think).  I didn't 
actually receive Matt's post until *Saturday*, but obviously charghwI' 
received in on Tuesday, because he responded to it that day, and I 
received his comments on it.

I resigned as the BG, not because I was worn out, but because I'm 
anticipating a little.  I am beginning my Ph.D. level studies (having 
just finished the MA).  I'm also actually teaching a class this 
semester ahead, and since it's my first time teaching, I'm not sure 
exactly how much time to figure it to take.  Add to that my newborn 
son, and there's just too much to acurately predict my available time 
in the months to come.  It would not be fair to the newcomers to the 
list (and I predict we'll see a large influx in the weeks to come), if 
I was unable to get to my mail except twice a week or so; and I could 
picture charghwI', just watching all those posts going by, just 
itching to respond!!  {{{:)

The summer traffic was light, and I was able to keep up.  If it had 
been otherwise, charghwI' stood ready to assist me, a service I wish 
to now publicly thank him for (even though I never took advantage of 
his offer).  If, after folks return to school and traffic picks up, 
charghwI' finds himself overwhelemd, I stand ready to assist him in 
like kind.
