	I also second Barry's, Sam's and Ron's comments.  Keith is providing
a high quality service essentially free to WSFA members and we should
recognize his work for what it is.
	The issue raised by the pretty Lee is best addressed by WSFAns
learning how to use our collective tools better.  As Secretary, I noted a
lot of announcements that wound up appearing after the event date because of
the _Journal_ publication schedule.  A serious waste of time in most cases.
We simply need to be aware of the publication schedules of our media and
announce in the appropriate medium in adequate time for others to benefit
from the announcement.

I second the notion.  In running the email list, Keith has provided a
high level of service which would be unobtainable with most any automated
or free-of-cost list service.  He checks each message from an unknown or
unregistered address to see if it is legit, and updates the address
'white list' to include that alternate source address.  He scrupulously
keeps the website up to date, he maintains the message archive and
reports traffic statistics, and he promptly dealt with the emergency
which arose when the free hosting was suddenly dropped.  I don't think
WSFA could get more professional results from any commercial hosting/list
service.
