Someone has a diabetes ping list.
I would be interested in that ping list. Can someone post it?
Would like to be on that list, who ever has it.
Me too.
If the owner of the list doesn’t show up soon, maybe I can find it by going back through some threads. I’m not on it, either, but have posted frequently on diabetes and the pinger always shows.
Global pinged IslandJeff earlier on a diabetes thread and I guess I mistook the post for a ping list. Since a couple of people here have expressed interest in a diabetes ping list, I’ll start one if Global or Jeff don’t have one already.
Please include me. Thanks DuckMan
