Dear friends,

Here lies the final edition of the Star Trek List of Lists. Please circulate
widely, print them out, and distribute them to your friends. It's what fandom
ought to be.

As many of you have noticed in the past year and a half, the time between
releases of the lists have increased to a point where it was months between
releases. This is not the way it should be.

Unfortunately, work and school have eaten more and more into my time. Since
scholastic items have to take some priority, some things have to be dropped. 
This includes the issuance of the List of Lists. I regret that I have to do 
so, but circumstances force me to do so.

I would like to thank all of the people who have contributed information to 
the List of Lists. Without the contributions from people around the world, 
these lists would be just another episode listing. Instead, it is one super 
handy guide for a Trek fan.

I would also like to thank all of the sysop who have carried my lists on their 
boards and the site administrators who, at one time or another, carried the 
Lists on their sites.

I would like to step back now and lurk, perhaps contributing once in a while. 
I won't entirely disappear.

Perhaps, someone would like to come forward and take over the lists. There are 
some things which I wanted to include, such as complete episode counts on all 
the TNG episodes, short crew bios, and complete popular species appearances.  
I had hoped to do a Babylon Five List of Lists, a true Simpsons's List of 
Lists instead of an episode guide, and a MST3K List of Lists.  I'm afriad I
left a few strings hanging. But, such is life. If anyone is interested, let me
know. Let's talk.

It's been a great three years. Maybe we can do again sometime. Until then, 
peace and long life, be excellent to each other, and may your journey be a 
pleasent one.

Sincerely,

Mark Arthur Holtz
"Mr. List of Lists"

PS: Now, if anyone is willing to donate to me a 10-ft C/Ku-band satelllite 
setup..... ;)
