Re: [Digital BW] Possible New "Real" Forum if there's interest.

I don't contribute much to this list since I'm such a noob, but the 
fewer Yahoo groups I have to deal with the better... The search 
engine sucks so bad. I don't want to get hundreds of emails a day 
(yes, I'm on a few yahoo groups). I'd much rather visit a website 
like photo.net, rangefinderforum.com or dpreview.com where I can 
search before I post the same question for the hundreth time... Just 
my $.02...
