Is there a way to have the email list overlooked by Google and Nabble?
Although it's probably too late for that now.  I'll go with Mike's advice
and not post anything private. - rob

Tom,

I have been looking into SSL. It appears that the free certificates
(self-certify) may not provide any real security. I would appreciate further
education.

Since everything on the email list is indexed by Google, I do not understand
what additional security SSL brings other than to authenticate the source of
the webpages themselves. I was merely cautioning list members not to place
personal info in emails that are bound for the list.

The Google maps are not run by our rhodes22.org website. I do not understand
your reluctance to add your name to the map.

I was going to keep my.mouth shut about it all let's say I won't be adding
my name to the map.
(And part of why I wanted SSL (let's encypt is free) to at least limit some
of the boys from finding us)
