P.S. you're missing a lot of info in the photos and files section.
P.P.S. I use the website exclusively because I want my e-mail InBox
uncluttered (you poor saps who get all of my messges instantly as I
send them rather than coming to the website at your leisure :))) but
how do you sign up to this list without providing the info the you
say Yahoo wants. If you're a list member, don't you already have a
password?
