I expect Mike that Tim is well aware of the history of the CIX which just a year ago was reaching an all time low. Now Bob collet has done well since he took over, but the CIX still does not have widespread support. It formed a CIX mail list about a month ago. I joined. *NO* traffic. It has never been able to communicate outside the bounds of its own members and until it finds a way to do this successfully will not become *THE* trade association that I think the industry really DOES need. Tim's posts may be a bit quixotic but they DO point to an unfilled need. ******************************************************************** Gordon Cook, Editor & Publisher Subscript.: Individ-ascii $85 The COOK Report on Internet Non Profit. $150 431 Greenway Ave, Ewing, NJ 08618 Small Corp & Gov't $200 (609) 882-2572 Corporate $350 Internet: [email protected] Corporate.
