I haven't submitted much to this group because, well, . . . I'm kind'a shy
and didn't really think I had much to contribute. But what I've noticed
since the announcement that this group was due for termination is that most
of the articles submitted to it are protests about the termination. If the
only evidenced use of this newsgroup is to protest its loss, well then,
perhaps it IS time to go.

On the other hand, I keep reading the group in the hope that something of
significance and worth will be posted. I haven't seen anything like that
for a while. If this newsgroup makes the transition to a mailing list, will
the primary topic be keeping the mailing list alive?

No, no, apparently you're not shy enough. This group should logically
be empty *except* when something catastrophic is about to happen, at
which time all the readers will diffidently submit polite protests...

It's kind of nice feeling to look here and observe, "Yup, nobody's
written anything there, again."

Since readership is bucking the overflow level, maybe someone can help
me get a tape or copy for me onto cassette tape the two PHC shows from
Hawaii (November, 1985 and July, 1986). I am a fan of Hawaiian music
and would like to get these shows - mostly the musical portions - for
my listening pleasure. Can any one help me?
