Why Misty? read the NewbieFest! There are two pages that will help you with the list and help answer some of those pesky questions. The first, Mel's Rules of Thumb, are at http://www.herald.co.uk/local_info/rules_thumb.html It's a short page, and talks about the the do's and don'ts of the list The second page, the NewbieFest, will give you a little more of a feel towards the list, and help you out with things like, "What's up with the sheep?". *grin* It's located at http://www.ling.udel.edu/hyde/pers/misty/newbiefest.html If you would like an email copy of the Newbie Fest, let me know and I'll get it to you ASAP. Also, you may want to read about some of the abbreviations we use on the list, such as "YKYRTMMLW..." or "ObMisty". You can find a list of all of the abbreviations you'll ever see used on the list at: http://www.ling.udel.edu/hyde/pers/misty/abbrev.html If you at any time have any other questions, feel free to voice them on the list, or ask myself or one of the other Councilors (we have our titles in our signatures) privately :). We'd be glad to help Wind to thy Wings, Dax the Eternal, Councilor of Mist, Goddess of Elves and Unicorns, Knight of Fluff Evangelist of Low Humor, Mistic Watcher of Continuity NewbieFest: http://www.ling.udel.edu/hyde/pers/misty/newbiefest.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Jun 2001 09:42:41 -0500 From: "tntgray" To: Subject: NewbieFest Reminder for the old and the new.

And keep sending all those wonderful messages! There are two pages that will help you with the list and help answer some of those pesky questions. The first, Mel's Rules of Thumb, are at http://www.herald.co.uk/local_info/rules_thumb.html It's a short page, and talks about the the do's and don'ts of the list The second page, the NewbieFest, will give you a little more of a feel towards the list, and help you out with things like, "Why should/shouldn't I braid?", "What is a oneliner?" and the ever popular, "What's up with the sheep?". *grin* It's located at http://www.ling.udel.edu/hyde/pers/misty/newbiefest.html If you would like an email copy of the Newbie Fest, let us know and one of the Councilors can get it to you ASAP. Also, you may want to read about some of the abbreviations we use on the list, such as "YKYRTMMLW..." or "ObMisty". You can find a list of all of the abbreviations you'll ever see used on the list at: http://www.ling.udel.edu/hyde/pers/misty/abbrev.html If you at any time have any other questions, feel free to voice them on the list, or ask myself or one of the other Councilors (we have our titles in our signatures) privately. We'd be glad to help. Oh, one last thing..you need to turn off html when you are sending messages to the list, the listserver, Vanyel, doesn't like html, so it adds all kinds of hard to read stuff to your messages. *grin* Wind to thy Wings, Dax the Eternal, Councilor of Mist, Goddess of Elves and Unicorns, Knight of Fluff Evangelist of Low Humor, Mistic Watcher of Continuity ------------------------------ End of MERCEDES-LACKEY Digest 2603 **********************************
