AFAIK Ned has not given up on us here.

He knows he is always welcome...

All are welcome here as long ad you are polite and on topic.

There were a few list members who said they were no longer posting because
they didn't want their posts on the other site... And that is no longer an
issue, so I hope they are willing to participate once again.
