GE - Postings and castings

[Martin Miles]

I think everyone wants to have messages that allow our group to get together
and do new things like casting.  I would suggest that when a message to call
for a casting party is held that the one who wishes to hold the party should
place a link to thier private email in the message and ask for those
interested to reply there and not to the list.  I for one was interested in
the casting workshop but since so many messages were posted I could not sift
throught them all in time to make sense out of them.
