Alas, there once was a reason. But those folks I hoped to retain
with new mtmt and new name have long since departed, and quite
frankly haven't figured here in some time.

There *are* folks who committed to the new name and even created
a master blog, and they should be heard. But frankly the antipathy
to Audities in its then form of 02/08 I no longer feel. Safe & sane
has been this state of late. Possibly the excellent Miss Butters
reissue had a calming effect :)

So, let's reduce my original proposal to:

     *** Who volunteers to assume management of this list? ***

I need to retire & move on. If no one steps up we face the February
surprise yet again, and soon. I will assist in the transition and
technical support.
