I don't think there's enough volume and/or topic spread to warrant a
new mailing list just for help.  I'd vote for staying where we are
now.  Come on folks, the "DELETE" key or button really isn't all that
hard to hit. :-)

However, I'm am pleasantly suprised to find out there is a jobs list. 
Hopefully I won't need it anytime soon, but casting one's net as wide
as possible when you are searching is nice.  Maybe I need to re-visit
the NTLUG web page again to find out what else is there that I don't
know about. :-)

And get back to our normal selfs?  What a concept!  ;-) ;-) ;-)
