Re: [AlpacaTalk] Move Group?

Hmm. I don't know, but then what about the forum at AlpacaNation? Or
any other alpaca discussion group. When you log onto one of those, you
get everyone's web address... and if AlpacaTalk is hosted at
whitelotusalpacas.com/alpacatalk/ , eh.... no one's forced to look at
my personal web space...

By the way, I was about to purchase alpacatalk.com but some @$$jack has
already taken that as well as alpacatalk.org and alpacatalk.net. So
there ya go.

Best regards,
Heather
