http://www.gocomics.com/getfuzzy/2013/09/12/ The word Dook is actually for a sound they make and was created by FML member Pam Greene who created Ferret Central and more. Of course, many, many, MANY ferret resources: help places, clubs, shelters, activities, stores,and products began with people who were on the FML, which is no huge surprise given its age and size. BTW, yesterday I sent three abstracts but only one seems to have arrived in places. Yahoo is making a pile of revisions, though, and as a result Yahoogroups is very messed up and some other Yahoo services are also having problems, though lesser ones. Does the FML use Yahoo?

There's still one more left after today. The FML doesn't use Yahoo!. FML distribution is via a robust commercial service which normally charges a very considerable amount. They kindly are donating use of their services due, in part, to a prior business and friendship relationship and, in part, to them being nice people :-) I purchase the other FML services such as the website.
