Pullman and Crowley may be fine writers, worthy \nof some of the fine-toothedness I've seen demonstrated here, but I'd prefer \na Wolfe-dedicated discussion. Ranjit, is it possible to have a Wolfe list \nand a more open, general discussion list? I don't know how the financial \nside of whorl hosting works or what options you have but it seems to me \nyou've enabled the formation of a community and it would be interesting to \nsee the scope of exchange broadened. Anyone else feel similarly?\n\nAs for a handle I'm picking one that's seems both whorlly and close to my \nown name - Eule."
