What about migrating this list into a message board forum?
This format is so archaic and difficult. 
With a forum, if you don't want to check in, you don't get four thousand emails to deal with.
When you check back in, discussions are very discoverable and linear.  Trying to go back and follow any thread on this list is a chore to say the least.

That GeneWolfebookclub forum was cool. I dropped off due to life, but I liked it.  Anyone on the fence about this should check it out. Since it was a book club read-through, I couldn't dig in the way you can here.  Taking the Urth List into an Urth Forum would be awesome.  It could't be that hard to set up, could it?  Who is game?
