Actually -- The party mailing list used by our household is compiled 
from a couple of private mailing lists, the Filk mailing list, folks 
who have the keyword "FILK" in your CompuServe SF Forum profile, the
user lists of a couple of BBS's we like the feel of and all the 
addresses the household members have collected at SF Cons, at work, 
from acquaintances, etc.  So don't be worried if you are wondering 
who the hell we are.  :)


Hope to see you there.
   John, keeper of the mailing lists.
