Hi Steve,
I've been a member of that list since early March, having registered when I
was working on my Lisas. I just trawled through my old emails to see if I
could find anyone relevant but I couldn't find any sign of a registration
letter or anyone who specifically welcomed me as the moderator. I have a
feeling I might have just registered on the list site.
I've found people on the list to be very helpful and friendly. I saw your
posts there and they looked entirely innocuous. I can only think there has
been some kind of mistake or glitch. I wonder if the moderator is ok?
Seeing Rick Hason's passing (Club 100) makes one realise that key members of
a community can disappear from time to time.

Subject: Google Lisa List
Does anyone know who owns this list and how to get in
touch with them? I
joined last month, made about three totally innocuous postings and found
myself banned at the next attempt to sign in. Google, in their infinite
wisdom, gives you no means to find out if it's a mistake, appeal to the
owner, or even get an explanation for why it's occurred!
I sent a message to the posting address with no response. I had been
given the name of "lowenddan at gmail.com" as list owner, but cannot get any
response from that address either.
Is there something I should know about becoming worthy of Lisa List
membership? Perhaps a secret handshake I've overlooked? I contacted a
couple of members privately, and both were utterly baffled as to what the
motivation may have been.
I'm still operating on the assumption that this is a software glitch or
mistake. If I've been thrown off as a deliberate action, then I think
it's common courtesy for the list owner to at least explain why this
occurred.
Steve
