You don't need take so many precautions: self-introductions are always
very appreciated! At least, bios are among my favorite posts (others
bios are available in the list archives,
http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/raw-food.html, as well as on jr's
WWW page http://www.rawtimes.com/).

It is my opinion that most people on this list are "predominantly raw
fooders", I can't be absolutely certain, since only 10-20% write
regularly.

>How many people frequent this list?

109. You can see the current number of subscribers at

Thanks again for sharing your experience!

Best wishes,
