Being on the list might discourage people - after the twenty-or-so
monthly checkin messages, there's not much exciting info.

However, I do wonder if she will get any benefit out of it. As a

along with the occasional business discussions.
I get what you are saying. The bottom line is that the USGW says the
list has to be here and you have to be on it. To me that means that this
is YOUR list and it is/will be whatever you all make of it. If you all
are like me you are probably on way to many mail lists. This one is one
you have no choice about. The list doesn't have to be all about
check-ins and state business. On another state list we had a long thread
about old family recipes. On that list we crow about a new branch on the
family tree or blow off steam when someone jumps your case about
something on your site(s). I discovered two "cousins" by our chit-chat
on the list. If your doing research for something and come across
something that would be of interest to another CC it could be posted to
the list.
This is your list. There's no need for everyone to just be an anonymous
name on the list once or twice a month. The list could be used to make a
family, the CoGenWeb Family. To make friends. All here share a common
interest, Colorado.
The list isn't here just for the amusement of the SC and ASC.
Something to think about.
