Re: [MFP] MFP is completely coming to an end tomorrow

 

Echoing what others here have said - thank you Chuck and Howard for starting this group ages ago, and for everyone who has contributed to it in the past.  It was always great to see so many passionate people engaging and discussing these topics.  Now with social media it has become more of a presentation of one's ideas rather than a full-blown discussion. Call me old school but I may prefer the latter, even if I was more of an observer than participant :-)

Thanks a million,
Marcella

Hi all,

Howard and I set up this email group on Yahoo on 1 May 2001, over 19 years ago. We have 2,656 members. In the past, there was a large amount of discussion on this group, but for various reasons, it currently has little activity.

I just got notice that Yahoo is closing down the email group service tomorrow. They gave not even a week's notice. As of tomorrow, your emails will be returned as unsinkable.

So this is it…. Any discussions will now have to take place on other services you've migrated to. I'm certainly not going to go to the effort of setting up a new group and managing memberships when there is so little activity on the current group.

It has certainly been an interesting (and tumultuous) 19 years. Lots of differing views on the changes that happened in so short a time. Discussions of those views will now need to take place in other venues.

Regards to all,

Chuck Waterfield
MFP Founder
And yes… .it's 7am, I need to head out and milk my goats. They are wondering where I am.
