[Promotum] Administrivia: Welcome to Promotum

[Edmund A. Hintz]

Howdy all,

     I finally killed off my AOL account, which you may have noticed is 
what I've used for the visible address I send forwards to. Since I was 
making organizational changes anyway, I decided to setup mailing list 
software to handle the usual forward traffic. I have subscribed everyone 
who is on my usual list of suspects, so you need do nothing if you wish 
to continue relieving stuff. Advantages to setting up mailing list 
software include the following:

You can now unsubscribe yourself, turn the list off when you go on 
vacation, get the posts in digest form, whatever. Additionally, if you 
forward mails to friends, they can subscribe themselves directly if they 
so desire. All of this is done here:

Also, the posts will be archived, so 6 months from now, when you want to 
lookup the articles about those Russian Mathematicians that think history 
happened in parallel, you can do so. I think this will be a very nice 
feature, as the exact scenario listed above occurred, and I didn't 
remember where the links came from and wasn't able to easily find them. 
Anyway, here's the address for archives:

Mini-FAQ:

     Why the name promotum?

Promotum is Latin for "To push forward, move ahead, advance". That's what 
this list does.

     How do I change my list options?

     What is the answer to the ultimate question of Life, the Universe, 
and Everything?
