agenvir-l : A new mailing list for the discussion of 
environmental issues in the agricultural Sciences
-----------------------------------------------------

Hi!  First, I hope that you'll forgive my cross-posting;  I wanted
this to reach as wide an audience as possible.  Please distribute 
this message freely.

I have just established a new mailing list called agenvir-l.  
The purpose of this list is to discuss environmental issues in the
agricultural sciences.  This could include debate/discussion
about:

- Alternative cropping systems
- Organic farming
- Animal Agriculture
- Vegetarianism
- Sustainability Issues
- Anything else that you decide is appropriate

This mailing list can be whatever you would like to make of it;  I will
not
moderate the list unless there is an overwhelming desire for that.
Moreover, this list is open to anyone who is interested.

I'm hoping to attract a wide variety of people; the real strength of
the
list will lie in having people with various backgrounds come together 
for these discussions.  Both idealists and pragmatists are welcome, 
as are people of varying experience levels; I truly feel that everybody

has something to contribute.

Sound interesting? To subscribe, send mail to majordomo@pentagon.io.com
with
the message 'subscribe agenvir-l' (excluding the quotes) as the body of
your 
message.  I also have a WWW front end for subscribing which can be
accessed
with your favorite forms-capable browser at: 
http://www.io.com/user/btorres/subscribe.html

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me
at btorres@netcom.com.

Thanks!

Bob Torres

Feel free to post anytime with your questions, concerns, announcements, or

and pragmatists are welcome here, as are people of varying experience
levels;  I truly feel that everybody has something to contribute.

I hope to attract people from a variety of professions and experiences;
therefore, please tell your friends about this list.  The more people we
have to discuss these sometimes complex issues, the better.

If you ever need to unsubscribe or do any other administrative requests, I
have established a WWW front end for the mailing list which can make things
a little more friendly.  That front end can be found at the following URL:

If you have any comments, questions, or problems, please contact me
directly at owner-agenvir-l@pentagon.io.com.  Please also try to avoid
sending subscribe and unsubscribe requests to the list;  this generally
annoys people.

Thanks for your interest,
