Hi Ababi
I also refer to Escribe sometimes. It is a good secondary reference.
You should know that many CLAYART posts do not make it on to Escribe
each day
5-30 posts per day are missing.
Escribe claims this is not true and claims they are only offline five
minutes per day at most.
but I have compared the CLAYART archives to ESCRIBE and I know that
Escribe is rarely complete.
Quite often posts that are written between 9PM and 8 AM PST are lost.
Also anytime that Escribe is down no messages are 'transmitted'(don't
know the technical word for it). This can be a few hours a day and
occurs quite frequently.
I think the CLAYART ARCHIVES are the most complete, though they aren't
as easy visually because you can't see the author's name when it shows
you the list of daily posts, and the search is more of a 'blind search'.
But it is complete.
(I get the daily posts in DIGEST form, that way I know that everything
arrives, in one bundle!)

Good day to you Ababi
