If you don't get the job, that will be sad.
You will be a great leader honey.
I'm so proud and happy to be on this list.
Yr's forever.
Laura Meyer.
PS, I will also volunteer for mod status, if you guys want me.  I 
like that type of work.

David,

If by organized activity, you mean something akin to nabs for 
blind Jews, no, there is not, so there is no so-called division 
president who would, by rights, be the moderator.  It would be 
one of us, the people who are posting on this list now.  I will 
volunteer for the job, if nobody else wants it.

 There are 54 persons who are subscribed to the group.  The list 
moderator of record is Harold Snider.  This shows how inactive 
the list has been -- Harold died some years ago, at least five, 
and probably more.

 Is there any kind of organized activity on Judaism in the NFB, 
so we can find another moderator.

 As list owner, I of course watch all lists, so no moderator is 
absolutely necessary..
