Please note: subscribe / unsubscribe protocol
forage-mg colleagues:
Please note that commands, subscribe, unsubscribe, etc. need to be
sent to almanac@oes.orst.edu.
Sending these commands to forage-mg@oes.orst.edu simply results in
an annoying message to the entire mailing list and does not
accomplish the command. If you have difficulty with executing any
of these commands, please send a note to me directly and I will help
you.
Thank you for your cooperation.
(I've included the description and instructions for using almanac
at the bottom of this message.)
(For those of you with a World Wide Web browser, check out the
beginnings of our Forage Information System:
http://www.forages.css.orst.edu. If you'd like to assist in
development or have a link to suggest, please send me a note.
Thanks.)
