Guest guest Posted June 2, 2002 Report Share Posted June 2, 2002 Hi all, This portion of the message is directed to those who send their posts anonymously or send posts with commercial content. The bottom part is about veggie social events. I would like to encourage people to sign their posts. This is a SF Bay Area list, and one of the nice things about the list is that we'll actually get to meet the people in our online community too. Anonymous posts don't lend themselves to creating an online community. Anonymous posts will be held to a higher guideline. First-time & Anonymous posters, if you have questions about what the guidelines are, please read the charter before posting. http://www.geocities.com//charter.html In particular, I would like to warn people that there are organizations (both commercial and non-profit) that collect contact information and re-sell it. I know from personal experience that there is an organization who has my contact information and is selling it to a mailing list broker, like " Names in the News " .... http://www.nincal.com/ (I am one of those people that *always* tell that groups that I donate or purchase from that I do not want my contact information sold. In these days of direct marketing, contact info is a source of revenue for profit & non-profit organizations.) (Okay, Admin stuff done...... sorry to bore those of you who have responsibly been signing your names to posts and conscious of what messages you send to this list versus others.) EVENTS We met some folks on Friday and it was great to put faces to names. We enjoy planning small events because we get an opportunity to interact with everyone. We also enjoy going to movies & eating out, so will be planning more events like the recent one. I also think some letter writing parties will be fun, too. I encourage everyone to just plan the type of veggie/AR event that they want to do, and then post it to the list. From the responses that we received, there are a lot of us that like to go out on Friday nights with new & old friends. Cheers, Tammy SFBAVeg List Admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
