This service is FREE to us through Yahoogroups.com. Because it is free, you will see small ads on our site which you may pursue or ignore as you desire. This is a secure site and Yahoo! groups has made it very difficult for any advertiser to infiltrate our email. This list is open to members of Network West only. Because this is a controlled group, we will not be listed in the general Yahoo! groups directory.
