In regards to whether anyone at GDW reads this list, the answer is no.
(In fact I don't recall seeing any Bloomington/Normal addresses on the net).
That doesn't mean that they might not see hardcopy of some/all of the messages.
They also don't have an e-mail address or any means of getting input
electronically except via diskette (at least according to the latest
submission guide). They are after all a small company and not involved
with computers more than most non-tech businesses. There are several
people, such as myself, who are good friends of members of the company who
do read this mailing list or net news, so they are not completely isolated
:^).
