"My Friends Have Passed Out on The Landing"
~Jas. Mathus
Here you can find information on joining this SNZ list, as well as view
the archives of the digest-form of The Landing.
To the left is a list of most of the recent digests. It begins with Issue #5,
because that is when we became "Officially Official" and started to get
more subscribers.
If you've missed an issue or want to see what we "used to be like" then
check out the back issues, archived here until Sept. 25 1999 or the complete
archives at smoe.org (linked on left), our gracious list server!
Below is the message recieved by each new member after they subscribe. You can find subscription information within.
Welcome to The Landing Mailing List! This is a Squirrel
Nut Zippers mailing list, availible in digest form.
That means that instead of getting a whole bunch of
loose e-mail throughout the day from fellow SNZ fans,
you can just get this list once a day (but if
you still want to get emails more often, you
can opt for the "loose mail" version. This list
was inspired by the wonderful Listbot
list that Matt Mitchell hosted through his website
(http://www.squirrelnutzippers.com). It's not in
competition with that list, but I hope that many of
the friends I made through there will join me here.
For the most part, I hope that all of our discussion
on the list will somehow be Zipper related. Since the
Zippers are influenced by so many different kinds of
music, and since most of the fans have a wide musical
taste, it shouldn't be hard to come up with some
content in your messages about the Squirrel Nut Zippers.
For now, off-topic posts will be accepted, but please
keep them to a minimum. When the Zippers return from
their hiatus (somewhere around June of 1999) I will
begin to crack down on way off-topic posts. A person
who continually posts about non-Zipper related
things will be warned, and if such posting continues,
will be removed from the list.
An example of an on-topic post:
Today after school my friends and I went swing
dancing. it was so much fun!
An example of an off-topic post:
Today after school my friends and I went to
the mall. it was so much fun!
BINARY FILES: This server does NOT support binary
(picture, document, etc.) files and attaching a file
to your post is prohibited. A binary file can crash
another list member's computer, contain a virus, or
simply be annoying to others. Posting of a binary file
will get you promptly booted from the list.
REPLYING: To reply to a message from the DIGEST form
of The Landing, you can either 1) compose new mail,
sending it to the-landing@smoe.org, and refer to the
post which you are replying to 2) hit "reply" and then
DELETE ALL UNNECESSARY TEXT before typing your reply
beneath the original post. DO NOT RE-SEND THE WHOLE
DIGEST. The first and second time you do it will get
you a warning. The third time you re-send a complete
digest, you will be removed from the list.
To reply to mail in the LOOSE MAIL form of The Landing,
you must make sure that your reply is sent to
"the-landing@smoe.org" and not to the sender if
you want it to appear as part of the list. If you want
to reply just to the sender, please be sure to correct
the address.
