We'll be here!  I can't predict what lively topics will come up, but I
can provide statistics on what has happened since the University of
Maine System has housed the list ...

         Feb        402         250
         Mar        499         279
 
Thus, last summer we averaged 1-2 postings per day, compared to the 7-16
per day average this winter.
 
During the past year we have approximately quadrupled membership, with
the current total steady at about 275.
 
P.S.  Thanks for the very kind words, Mike.  I really like the high
      percentage of "on subject" postings that this list enjoys.  The
      discussions from all of our diverse (background) and interesting
      membership family make the list the success it has been!
 
      Look for a new and related offering or two by next fall (if you
      have ideas for such, let me know, either directly or via the list).
