Gentlemen: Your intelligent, reasoned responses to my request for comments does my heart good. Dennis, how can I say no to your reasoning? I fact, in a response to Michael, I proffered the approach to remain on Sparkle, and post an occassional advertisement about the Parkinsaw Chnronicles' web site on PIE. I'd like to give it until Friday to accomodate further voices, but I do believe it's the best alternative. Further, I'm starting to wonder about the efficacy of re-posting old news. It may make more sense to keep content fresh, and refer occassionally to to web site for those souls wishing to read the 6-months of Parkinsaw Chronicle Archives. Thanks again, guys.
