Chris,

Here's the email to subscribe:  modifiedhealeys-subscribe at yahoogroups.com

The group is not as active now as it was in the early 2000s when we had
about 100 emails a month, now it's more like 2 or 3.  But the archives
still has a lot of good info and you can search them by following this:
