Is there still a Mentor List?
Way cool, Soundcrest. Many of the links didn't work for me but I did find a discussion board post by Rob V., a friend who I've lost touch with.
I need to find out what Rob's up to these days. Thanks for the reminder.

PS. I think the mentor list harkens back to a time when there were fewer members and a smaller discussion board. So the list said Bob knew a lot about airmails and was willing to help, or Mark knew about Canada, David was into certain cancels, etc.
These days, if you post on the board 10 people will be able to help! But the Mentor list was a way to ask questions in private. Maybe you were nervous, etc. I was the Mentor of a couple of things and only recall getting 3-4 emails with questions.
I see no reason why we can't explore restarting a mentor list. Maybe this is something that the Management Team can look into in the near future.
I want Nigelpedia to mentor me.
Mark - I have Rob's email address. We found each other several years ago.
I'll pm you more info later.
Wow! Thanks for the miniature blast from the past. Too bad the discussions aren't there - we had some awesome discussions and I've made a lot of friends. Really good memories of the "old days" - thanks! I needed something to lift me up today and this post definitely did the job!
Just about 15 years ago. Some of the Links seem to work too! I see mention of Netscape. Wow. I was using that as IE was never allowed to be used in this household
