Hi everyone and a big welcome to all our new members.

This is a reminder that we have a separate, very active, list for off topic
posts.  The thread about dating and marriage should be continued on OT
Chatter (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPFGU-OTChatter), and any other
totally OT messages should be posted there.  As a general rule, if you need
to put "OT" in your header, you are almost certainly posting to the wrong
list and you may find yourself becoming intimate with slugs.

For general information on this club and its various arms (including a link
to the netiquette tips file, including notes on OT posts):

Additional note:  Some OT content in an on topic message (or as part of a
multiple response) is fine, but being cheeky, and adding a token on topic
line to the end of an OT message, will cause the Moderators' wands to quiver
in their boxes and the List Elves to scuttle around their dungeon, banging
their lumpen heads against the walls.

Neil
