   I guess!  I'll be putting the move request into the new provider's 
migration team today. They promise it will be done within 24 hours.

   I am hoping they will just do it smooth perfect and I will only have to 
change the DNS at the namerserver. You might want to back up your stuff if 
you haven't. Please back up the K-list member list and mailman archives 
too, even if you cannot open them.

   Yeah, I did. Tired/relaxed. It is a beautiful location, a private camp 
with dorm style cabins, lots of tent space on a private lake fed by hot 
springs, surrounded by forest.
