     All,
     Lisa has moved on to other opportunities, and we
     (Deb and I on TECHWR-L, Brad on Framers) are in the
     process of picking up the pieces.  We (Deb and I )
     got to learn of the transition at the same time you
     did--earlier today. ("Passed the reins to Eric in
     mid-August" is simply incorrect and untrue.)

   I'm dumfounded.  As with most of us Whirlers, we only see the list
   from the outside.  The gritty details of keeping it running was not
   our concern, only the transfer of information, the solution of
   problems, and the stress relief of the Friday follies.  However,
   TECHWR-L did not appear on its own and does not operate by magic.  The
   problems Eric wrote about in his e-mail show just how fragile this
   wonderful resource is for it's members.  I remember when Eric and Deb
   transferred the list serv's responsibility to Lisa.  It was relatively
   painless and extremely smooth.  So should it be transferring the
   responsibility back to Eric and Deb.  If there are legal and financial
   problems, then those problems should be discussed and a resolution
   developed, then Lisa can move on to her new position and Eric, Deb and
   the TECHWR-L community can move on with their lives.
