   I've been wondering the same thing -- that is, what has happened to AFT   
   & RABT, because it is quite obvious from discussions elsewhere that   
   people care very much about Tolkien's work :-)   
      
   I wonder if we should have been much more active ten years ago to allow   
   HTML posts on usenet -- I can even see the advantage of being able to   
   do some more advanced formatting (though I suspect that the ability to   
   include animated smilies and other kinds of pictures is more important   
   to many people).   
      
   But those are just speculations -- the people we should ask are those   
   who are no longer here: those who used to be here (or used to post more   
   frequently) and those who could be here, but aren't -- those clever   
   people posting on the various Tolkien-related web-boards.

   Please put [AFT], [RABT] or 'Tolkien' in subject.
