Tom:
I don't care if others read the post in the raw-food archive - they are free
to do so. I simply don't want my material posted and attacked by dishonest
zealots on other "unmoderated" raw food e-mail lists. By stating that the
material cannot be crossposted, I may have some protection. Let me also say
that I have nothing against the decent subscribers to the other lists - just
the few hostile zealots there.

Tom:
I did one post per article because some of them were reposts (the material
was discussed previously on raw-food), and having 1 article/post makes it
easy to delete that piece of e-mail if you don't want it. It is easier to
delete 1 piece of e-mail, than to edit N lines out of one big file. (This is
the standard "digest vs individual mail" issue.) I don't want to dump a
lot of material on the list, but thought it OK as some of it is reposts.
I wanted to include the reposts, in case there are new people on the list.
Thanks for your kind comments on the Expo material! It is appreciated.
Regards,
Tom Billings
