I'd prefer to keep\nthe Whorl list focused mostly on Long Sun.  If the New Sun\nlist is similarly focused, then we do need at least three\nlists to cover Urth, Whorl, and The Rest.  On the other\nhand, if everyone in the world who's interested in one of\nthese topics is equally interested in the other two, then it\nmay be foolish of me to try to keep them separated.\n\nLet me know what you think; I'll open up the new list or\nlists in April.  Please send your suggestions directly to me\n(ranjit at best.com) and not to the Whorl list.  Perhaps we\nneed a mailing list for discussion of wolfe-related mailing\nlists?\n\n\tranjit\n\twhorl-list's owner\n\nQuestions or problems to whorl-owner at lists.best.com"
