                   For my information:

                    when was listserv software first written and deployed?
What was
                the first host site??
                    what was the first real mailing list to use listserv?
If it no
                longer exists , what is the oldest continuing mailing
list???
                  I presume Eric Thomas is still around and can answer
this??
