* Save the Bees, Save the World: The Story of the Oldest Bee Discussion List *
Can email groups help sustain our planet? Welcome to the extraordinary story of the BEE-L LISTSERV list. It's the oldest Internet bee list and has spawned many new bee forums and blogs over the years. It has about 1,000 members, who continue to try to work out how to best keep bees -- sometimes to save the bees and sometimes to save the world from what we'd all be if we didn't keep bees.
"Only a few species make enough honey to be kept under management for honey production, but bees are all valued for pollination, and some species are managed strictly to pollinate specific crops. The economic production of many familiar foods and spices is either partly or entirely dependent on insect pollination."
Allen Dick
BEE-L List Owner

Not all support groups are created equal, nor are all of the patients that benefit from them the same. GIST Support International (GSI) has members facing this rare cancer from around the globe -- including the United States, United Kingdom, Austria, India, Netherlands, China, Australia, Mexico, Italy, Canada and beyond -- to benefit more and more patients.
"GSI (Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Support, International) is truly a patient-driven organization, held together by the bonds of our email groups, which serve as our support system. Patients come and go, either because of death or long-term survival, but each and every person who associates with GSI through our LISTSERV discussions leaves a lasting piece of information and history for those who will follow in the future."
Ginger Sawyer
GSI Board Member and Treasurer
