If you don't have access through a news reader, then there are two options:
1) e-mail - send a message with the single word 'HELP' to
'pnfi.forestry.ca' to get instructions on how to subscribe, -or-
2) www - if you have a world-wide-web reader, such as Mosaic, then you can
read from the URL 'http://www.hal.com/services/juggle/', otherwise known
as juggle@hal.com, serviced by Barry Bakalar. (I'm not sure how to spell
his last name so I just went with all 'a's).
There's generally about 30 messages a day?? in this group. Don't post anything
rashly or Andrew Conway (the self-appointed humbler of newbies) is sure to
flame you. They talk about anything - juggling, unicycling, diablos, devil
sticks, torches, contact juggling, yo-yos, whip cracking and rope tricks (er,
skills), and knife throwing. Magic and miming are sort of taboo though, and
there was the aforementioned recent controversy over what place clowning has
for jugglers).
