What timing!

Just tonight, I received this:

Subject: [TXalert] Reactivation of TXalert mailing list

The TX legislature convenes again on 2008-01-09, but pre-filing of bills
has been ongoing for a couple of months.

I'll be reactivating the mailing list as soon as I get a good download
of files from the TX legislature's FTP server. Unfortunately, it's
acting a bit wonky at the moment (it looks like they changed to a
Microsoft FTP server :-)

I'll try again tomorrow morning and will send out the first report as
soon as practical. I won't be archiving the emailed reports as before,
but you'll always be able to review the list of bills that generated an
alert at:

http://www.ptb.org/txalert/2007/

(that webpage is empty at the moment)

There is some guy that doesn't like guns, that got a DWI 20 years ago. I got tired of reading about it.

I suspect Paul has left as well.

The key is effective filtering, because of the cross-posted nonsense. If you only read the stuff that is posted to tx.guns and not cross-posted, there's very little bad stuff.

Of course, there's very little good stuff left after the filters, either.

The individual is Paul Barnett.

I've sure missed him over at tx.guns.
