I looked at Wikipedia entry ... (been a while) .... I tried to find an estimate of number of current (2008) users -- I just reread (rescanned--I'm swamped) the 1998 article ... hmm ... somewhere I read the number 200 ... is that about the number of list members? .... hmm... is it reasonable to assume that all list members are XyWrite users? ....no way to find out about users who aren't list members .. ?? Just curious. Marge Who can't get along without it.
