You misunderstood, I did not say any of the 8 were posting in the
thread. I recieved an reply email (partially automated?) that said they
would be looking for interest in the idea at news.groups. Perhaps you
are unaware that the 8 watch the discussion. I certainly wasnt aware
there even was such a thing as Big8, or what they did, until I came up
with this notion.
