You may want to pass this along to those who may have Yahoo accounts and/or 
are on Yahoo elists.

Just for the group, info about yahoo....
Pass it along.

If you belong to any YAHOO GROUPS or use Yahoo in any other ways, you may want
to opt out of this.........

Yahoo is now using something called "Web Beacons" to track Yahoo Group users
around the net and see what you're doing and where you are going - similar to
cookies. Yahoo is recording every website and every group you visit. If you 
would like to opt out of their tracking system, here's how to do it:


1 Go to http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy In the column on the left side, under
the title of "Special Topics," click "cookies".
2 At the bottom of this new page you will see a link that says "Click here."
Click that.
3 On that new page click the phrase "web beacon". That will bring you to a
paragraph entitled "Outside the Yahoo Network."
4 In this section you'll see a little "click here to opt out" link.Click it.

Then STOP. What would normally be a confirmation button on the next page will
opt you back in.

You might pass it on to other Yahoo groups you're a member of.
