Thanks, Anita, I needed the laughs! As a new list owner, i've spent the past two weeks going from the thrill of having people actually subscribe to my list, to the frustration of trying to PUT a welcome into the filelist. All the good info on this problem has been helping, but still no success--Jim Gerland is now on the problem, so i expect it won't take long now. i have been reading this list for a few months and find the info valuable--some i've used, some is stored for future needs that are sure to pop up on ICWP-L, which is an international list for playwrights. Thank you all for the great job you do with LSTOWN. Sincerely, Diane Taber-Markiewicz Co-Director International Center for Women Playwrights ROHRINKH@snybufaa
