<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dear
Lowlanders,<br>
<br>
There may be some confusion among you. At least this is one of you suspects in
view of the “reduction” of posts in the past few days. <br>
<br>
He/she believes that people are not sure what to post to the actual List and
what to post to the Lowlands-L Village Commons (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=118916521473498">http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=118916521473498</a>).<br>
<br>
Let me make it simple:<br>
<br>
Please post anything to the List that pertains to the topic area of Lowlands-L:
<a href="http://lowlands-l.net/">http://lowlands-l.net/</a>. There is no change.<br>
<br>
I set up the Village Commons as a matter of courtesy and service because some
of you had suggested it. The intent was to give you an opportunity to socialize
and network with other Lowlanders in more relaxed and personal ways. It is
meant to be a place of chitchat and a place at which clearly non-Lowlands-related
information might be exchanged (e.g. “Take a look at the picture of our new
kitten!”, “Facebook has a new privacy policy,” or “My take on the Gaza debacle”). <br>
<br>
Very few of you have posted anything at the Village Commons, lately no one at
all. I might consider removing it if most of you think it is confusing,
unnecessary or redundant. <br>
<br>
In any case, nothing has changed at Lowlands-L. So please keep using it as usual.
<br>
<br>
Regards, Reinhard "Ron" F. Hahn</p>
