Actually, that group was up & running as of March 4th, so it has just
over a month of traffic under its belt.  That averages to about 2
messages a day.  Yes, it's low traffic right now, but then again, not
*everyone* is using it when they should be.  :::clears throat

If you're receiving the messages by email, you can dump the
Announcements posts into their own separate folder.  If you're on
webview & it's low traffic anyway, why not just check it weekly?  Or get
a digest?

The Moderators are open to suggestions.  However, we prefer to receive
emails directly to *us,* rather than having a free-for-all discussion on
this list.  Please email HPforGrownups-owner at yahoogroups.com if you'd
like to comment on this issue that Joy has raised.

Thanks,
