Not that I ever contributed anything. Did our 'zine replace this page? I noticed it really hasn’t been updated since AOL days(which, even though my registration date here is last April, I was indeed part of). Just curious. ---

Okay, I give up. What is the Teemings page? Do you have a link? The closest thing I can think of is the [Teeming Millions Homepage](http://fathom.org//teemingmillions/) over on Fathom. Is that it? ---

I’m a little confoosed as well. [Teemings](http://www.teemings.com) wasn’t around in the old AOL days and has just been up in the last eight months or so. If that’s what you’re talking about, the next issue is slated to be posted on April 1st. ---

Yes, **bibliophage** has the right page. Why is it never updated? ---

Your best bet is to ask **OpalCat** , who maintains that page. I’m sure a relevant e-mail address can be found on the site linked above. ---

IIRC, **Opal** is self-employed providing e- and/or i- services. Nobody works as hard as works for themselves, and I’m sure time is a serious factor for her. Maintaining a page like [The Teeming Millions Homepage](http://fathom.org/teemingmillions/) requires time and effort, and speaking as someone who has a hard enough time keeping up with which time-zone I’m in, I appreciate the fact that it exists in the first place, and I’m not too worried about how current it may or may not be. I just wish I had more time to keep up with two message boards; there are a lot of people over there I miss (and a couple I don’t, and the feeling’s mutual!)
