The whole world oughta go on a vacation

For those who follow such things, MOAPG (Mother of All Poetry Groups, which is a feedback forum for those who are interested enough in poetry to want feedback from the editors of Juice, other poets who choose to participate, and of course,possible publication of their work in Juice online) will be back in action September 1. You may notice some changes in the looks and workings of the list. Yahoo has made some interesting upgrades in their service.

One thing that may take some getting used to is the way posts are displayed. Each post becomes a topic and all responses to the topic are shown as threads. I think this should work very well for MOAPG because it will straighten up the clutter of work and response. It certainly will make life easier for me as an editor. I'm sure many of you have already encountered the changes in other groups that you participate in.

I have only recently begun to work again on Juice and other poetry related projects. It has been a much needed chance to clear my head and revive my enthusiasm for poetry and poets. It reminds me of the lines of one of the songs I sometimes sing, "The whole world oughta go on a vacation..."
