[at-l] Introduction

[Mara Factor]

Glad to have you...

One hint for getting the most information out of the list...  Pace
your questions...  Rather than asking all of them in one long email,
send one specific question at a time.  And not too many in one day.
You'll get more detailed information in response to each question that
way.

Looking forward to answering some of them if I can.
