[TriLUG] Call for a vote: Trash dead old lists

[Christopher Knowles]

OK, I'm just gonna come in there with the only thing that is annoying me 
here.  Welcome wagon... The inteded use of this list was for a subcommitee 
that would work on welcoming new users to TriLUG more graciously and, well, 
welcomingly.  NOT to be a newbies list.  As others have mentioned, that is 
truly better handled by the main list.  

I just wanted to clear that up.
