It fluctuates about 4-500 total subscribers, give and take....deduct
the dublets, those who subscribe to both digest and single-mails and
those of us who receive the list on more than one address and I'd say
we are about 200 "individual people" on the list.

...and you suggest that the zuiko being destroyed is the 55/1.2?
Double-heresy. Anyone besides me, who's starting to question if
Thomas Haegin is really a worthy zuikoholic, or if he is an agent
from the Dark Side (tm) who's here to mislead us? !!!
Count me out of your "destroying-zuikos" project. I will, however,
accept donations towards acquireing a 250/2 or something similar, to
use for doccumenting the mob of angry zuikoholics chasing you for
even making this suggestion...:)
Tsk tsk tsk....suggesting that a 55/1.2 be destroyed....and by
someone who shares my name.....what has the world come to?
