I, too, am limited by policies set forth by my employer,US Dept of the Army. Boards are considered "chats", and we are denied access. I also vote no.

I would have to veto that idea, since many of us are limited to what
we can access on the web.

Subject: Recommendation for new format
I'd like to poll the radsafers on their thoughts about interest in a new
look and feel to this popular list. Listservers are OLD technology and
have many drawbacks (in my opinion) that are easily avoidable. I'd like to
suggest that the sponsor for radsafe consider switching to a discussion
board format that is web-based. For an example, see the discussion board
of my local bass fishing club (
http://fishonbassclub.com/FOBA/wwwboard/wwwboard.html). I believe that
this would have the following advantages: you can following the board even
when on travel or at home since it's not tied to a particular email
address; no subscribing or unsubscribing; you don't get inundated with
hugh amounts of email or long digests that are hard to follow; threads are
self organized so you can easily pick and choose which ones to follow (or
not); most disscussion board software allow for inclusion of html code to
allow for hotlinks and even pictures. I would prefer this format and
wondered how you would feel?
