So Mr. Siler is saving all our posts somewhere other than the MDOSPREY archives?  Any copyright issues involved with this?  Norm should not allow this piracy for his own protection.

An apology to Jack Siler was certainly in order and I only hope that
"Recent Postings from MDOsprey Birding List"  will be restored to
Birdingonthe.net The MDOsprey acrchives continue to be current, thank
goodness. Whatever happened on Birdingonthe.net  was not the result of
a malicious or stupid act and the owner of that list did not deserve to
be publicly castigated. Even while "apologizing," Norm made one more
effort to steer people away from Siler's web site.

Jack Siler provides an invaluable service by consolidating archives
from lists throughout the country in one convenient location. Not
everyone, particularly those who don't already subscribe, will  have
the address for MDOsprey handy, so having its archives as well as those
of many other states in one spot is ideal.

If the postings of Phil Davis on July 18 appeared with a portion of the
subject line missing, the entire subject line was included as the first
line of the message. See below, copied directly from Birdingonthe.net.
I really don't see the big deal, but if this caused a problem for some,
  it was a minor technical issue which should have been addressed  as
such.
