[EBB Sightings] The List is Moving

I was just about to post a suggestion that the EBB list migrate to Yahoo 
or Google when this announcement arrived.  Thanks for making this 
necessary change - it should go a long way toward resolving the problems 
the list has been experiencing.  Yahoo occasionally has problems with 
timely delivery too, but it should be much more reliable overall.  There 
must be a reason why 22 of the 24 regional birding lists in the state 
are Yahoo groups.

PS - I don't have any financial interest in Yahoo.
