[HP4GU-FAQ] Re: How About Progress Reports? & Harry FP, Again

[Heidi Tandy]

Well, personally, of course I don't visit the yahoogroup. I get the 
posts via email. And given the number of groups I manage, I also know 
that yahoomort glitches like that sometimes. And I know from the Dark 
Days of Sinead that if something is deleted, you have to call yahoo and 
beg for it to come back and they'll likely only do it if you're a high 
profile website with ny times press cuttings and an obvious hacking.

So I'm trying to sound soothing and I know I'm not succeeding but I 
don't think the fact that a lot of people didn't notice this is evidence 
of anything. Those who get the list on email or digest would, inherently 
*not* notice.
