Text, yes, by all means. But it is about much more than text. And specially
ATM list will need this "more". The question is if benefits justify cost.

I hope not. Otherwise you will never accept Internet a couple of years ago.
Internet is paradigm of garbage laden treasure throve. For those who know
how to use it !  It is the same as with books or conversation.
Don't be to emotional before you can see and judge.
I trust in Michael Lindner feeling and decision when will be the
right time for stepping up.

PS
I wander what percentage of atm list members do have sites of their own.
