Erin:
  
Not a document, no.  But all this talk about a separate list has got 
me thinking... What "would" be great to have would be an archive for 
old TBAYs.  Not another list-- TBAYs would still have to be posted on 
the main list so that everyone could see them-- but a group that 
contained only the TBAY posts, eliminating the need to search for old 
ones on the main list.  

People would join solely for the purpose of looking up the old 
posts.  No one would be able to post to the group except the group 
owner, who would only do so to copy new TBAYs from HPfGU.

Would there be any kind of legal issue if a group member wanted to do 
this on their own?  Copy and paste all the old TBAYs from this list 
onto a group?  Just curious.

And, also, I was on the old archive group the other day looking up 
something, and noticed no mod had posted there since March.  I got 
kind of worried about that, because you supposedly lose your group if 
no one posts there for a long period of time.
