Plumbers Discussion List

To: Plumbing Professionals and Friends of the Trade:

I'm Kathy Love, listowner of the Plumbers Discussion List. I am a Master Plumber in South Carolina, 1995 President of the Midlands Master Plumber Contractors Association and 1996 Secretary/Treasurer of the Midlands Area Mechanical Contractors Association of South Carolina. Since 1981, my husband and I have owned a plumbing service company.

Last year, I got interested in this wonderful internet medium and worked for months to create an on-line discussion list for plumbers and plumbing contractors. The Plumbers Discussion List (Plumbers-L) is finally a reality.

In just a few short months, Plumbers-L has grown to over 100 subscribers. Those of us involved in this list are committed to maintaining the integrity and professionalism of the plumbing trade. I invite you to join us as a subscriber.

Plumbers-L is an unmoderated open discussion list for all plumbers and plumbing contractors. We do not accept postings from do-it-yourselfers or "weekend warriors" seeking advice. There are other forums for that. The List also welcomes manufacturers and suppliers to join in an atmosphere of open, non-commercial communication. Plumbers-L is intended to be a forum for free-flowing conversation and shared experiences that benefit our trade and our livelihoods.

Plumbers-L will only accept mail from subscribers and, of course, it's FREE.

To join the list, send an e-mail message to:

listserv@listserv.aol.com

with the following command in the BODY of the e-mail:

SUBSCRIBE PLUMBERS-L followed by your real name

To send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list, just send mail to: PLUMBERS-L@listserv.aol.com.

For questions or subscription information, please e-mail me at KLove001@aol.com. I look forward to meeting you on PLUMBERS-L.

Have a great day, Kathy
