	I guess this is my time to state my general displeasure with eGroups and 
suggest that people find other, non-free ways to publish ezines.

	I think the days of zero-cost-to-entry for ezine publishers are soon going 
away.  I think it's going to start requiring a little capital cost, which 
will produce two types of ezines:

	1)  Those funded by people with a love for their art.
	2)  Those funded by people with a love for their ego.

	The first will succeed, and have succeeded.  The latter will fail.
