In reply to Donna (who's response to me is at the bottom of this

Enough people have asked me to stay that it looks like, instead of
completely leaving the groups, I may just end up going on hiatus from
the group and go into a "deep lurk" hibernation for a while until things
hopefully improve.  We'll see what happens.  Anyone who still feels the
need to contact me can, but it may be quite some time before I post on
the lists again.
