    Subject: What Are You Thankful For...?
    Dear Listers, Here in the United States, Thursday is our National day of Thanksgiving. Many of us will be traveling to be with our families and friends to share in generous feasts of plenty and giving thanks for the many blessings that have been bestowed upon us. Many Listers have expressed over the last couple of weeks how thankful they are for the Email Lists and Forums here on the Matronics servers and for all of the assistance and comradery they have experienced being a part of the Lists. One of my favorite comments is when someone writes to me and says something like, "Its the first thing I do in the morning while I'm having my morning coffee!". That's a wonderful tribute to the purpose and function of these Lists. Its always great to hear I'm not the only one that jumps out of bed each morning to check my List email!! Won't you take a minute today and show your appreciation for these Lists and for their continued operation and upgrade? The List Contribution Site is: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a personal check in the mail to: Matt Dralle / Matronics 581 Jeannie Way Livermore CA 94550 USA Thank you in advance for your kind consideration, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator

    OK. So I joined this seaplane list several months ago and haven't gotten a single post about seaplanes, yet I seem to get daily requests for money telling me I'm supposed to be giving money to keep this list going. Am I missing something?

    Helen, If the only list you subscribe to is the seaplane, I understand your question. The seaplane list has, regrettably, almost no activity. The requests go to all of the Matronics lists. Many are very active and deserving of support by their subscribers. My favorite is the aeroelectric list. Hope this sheds some light on the requests.

    I completely agree with Raymond, including my favorite being the Aeroelectric list moderated by Bob Nuckolls. I subscribed to the original, the RV list, back around 97 or 98 and have been contributing during the annual fundraisers ever since, even though my RV-8 project is stalled and money is really tight this year - and I haven't flown a floatplane for several years. For your limited use, it's probably not worth contributing, but I suggest you subscribe to a couple of other of the Matronics lists and see if maybe you find it worth your while.

    Thanks for the explanations.That does make sense. If you'll pardon another question though, why doesn't the host just move these over to the yahoo groups server which is totally free and provides some nice options like list digests, web based subscriptions, message archiving a search functions, etc? I subscribe to a number of those and even moderate one and see no downside to using the free yahoo server. To the contrary, to someone such as myself who may have a very occasional question to post about electronics or Rotax engines or such, the yahoo options make more sense than the straight list serve offered here. ???

    Matt sends those notices out to every member of every list on his server. Occasionally I get posts form this list not nearly so often as Aerolectric or Kitfox.
