Big question, I know. About three weeks ago the server running Homeport and the usna-alumni mailing list (commonly known as the Snoopy list, since the first server it ran on was named snoopy) crashed. It would no longer boot and I was not able to repair the installation of the operating system to the point where it would boot. So I had to start all over again from scratch. I have not actually located the list of email addresses itself and consequently have not been able to email the list members. As soon as I do I will reconstitute the list and get it running again. Please accept my apologies and please sign up to be a contributing author here on the Bancroft Echoes Web Log; just email me at trygstad at trygstad dot org.
