[Rhodes22-list] Q about topping lift and pic attachment problems

[john Belanger]

i am a member of a couple of yahoo groups. when a pic is posted, it is sometimes easier to post it on the groups homepage rather than as an email enclosure. or some people have their own webpages that they update with new pics regularly. it would seem that some place should be found that can be accessed by the group members to include pics and data. it would lessen the sailing (not political) verbal confusion.
