Hi Bernie,

I, like Derek, use the email option.  You don't get ADs in the email
anymore and I just find it easy to use.

If you really want web functionality with the advantages of email then get
yourself a web based email account set up just for the purpose of reading
the EUforum.  This is what I did.  I used the free service at
www.mailandnews.com but choose any free web email provider you like.  Here
is a good list of suggestions:

Once you have a web based email account then subscribe to the EUforum list
in the usual way by sending a message to:

    EUforum-subscribe at topica.com

Now instead of struggling with Topica's web interface you can use your web
email account interface instead.

Just a suggestion for you and anyone else who doesn't like Topica's web
interface - just find an web email provider with an interface (and low AD
ratio) that you prefer instead.

Regards,

FP.
