I haven't submitted much to this group because, well, . . . I'm kind'a shy and didn't really think I had much to contribute. But what I've noticed since the announcement that this group was due for termination is that most of the articles submitted to it are protests about the termination. If the only evidenced use of this newsgroup is to protest its loss, well then, perhaps it IS time to go. On the other hand, I keep reading the group in the hope that something of significance and worth will be posted. I haven't seen anything like that for a while. If this newsgroup makes the transition to a mailing list, will the primary topic be keeping the mailing list alive?

This group should logically be empty *except* when something catastrophic is about to happen, at which time all the readers will diffidently submit polite protests... It's kind of nice feeling to look here and observe, "Yup, nobody's written anything there, again."

Since readership is bucking the overflow level, maybe someone can help me get a tape or copy for me onto cassette tape the two PHC shows from Hawaii (November, 1985 and July, 1986). I am a fan of Hawaiian music and would like to get these shows - mostly the musical portions - for my listening pleasure. Can any one help me? ... {allegra, gatech, ihnp4, linus, raybed2} !rayssd!rayssdb!iws Ihor Slabicky MS 171 * Raytheon Company * Submarine Signal Division P.O.
