Despite sharing a domain name, they're different. The list is actually hosted by "gerry.vanagon.com" (66.95.48.130), which is an entirely different server than "www.vanagon.com" (209.0.103.33). The former is in Connecticut, according to a traceroute, the latter in Colorado. I don't know who's hosting the web site.

Why not update the vanagon.com site with a place for links? > Or better yet if the ability exists, allow an e/mail to be sent to the > server to > add a link to the link area or send a "request" for a delete of a dead > link? >

Listserv (the software the list uses) doesn't actually support that sort of thing, I don't think.
