They are actually still subscribed. But, since we went to a new server, we have been having problems with certain e-mail providers, most notably with att.net. Our understanding is that they, and several others including pacbell.net, bellsouth.net, mcn.net (and possibly others) have black-listed us for no reason whatsoever. \ud83d\ude42 We have been aware of and have been working on this issue but there is a chance that the situation may never be fixed. Actually, the exact same problem has persisted for several years on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.birdphotographers.net\/forums\/content.php\" target=\"_blank\">BirdPhotographer&#8217;s.Net<\/a>. My solution there was to open a free gmail account and get in the habit of checking it every day. I still do just that so that I can get my BPN notices and respond to the various threads that I am following.  <\/p>\n<p>At present, there are two viable solutions:<\/p>\n<p>1- You can open a free gmail account and subscribe at that address. You will get your BAA blog notifications there without a problem. <\/p>\n<p>2- You can save the blog address as a favorite and get in the habit of visiting every day. I should be posting every day for at least the next year \u2026  And beyond that as well. Barring any serious health or internet problems. <\/p>\n<p>I am glad that folks miss getting their BIRDS AS ART Blog notices. If you have stopped getting yours and use a different e-mail provider than the four listed above, please click <A HREF=\"mailto:samandmayasgrandpa@att.net?subject=Blog Subscription Problematic e-mail Provider\">here<\/A> to shoot me an e-mail. Please be sure to let us know your e-mail provider. <\/p>\n<h2><strong>Wanted to Buy Service<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you would like to post a wanted to buy item, I will be glad to run it on the blog provided that you agree to pay me a 2 1\/2 per cent finder&#8217;s fee if I am successful, 2 1\/2% of the what you wind up paying for the item. To list an item, please click only <A HREF=\"mailto:samandmayasgrandpa@att.net?subject=Wanted to Buy -- I agree to pay a two and one-half percent finder's fee\">here<\/A> and let me know what lens or camera body you are looking for. As always, BAA Used Gear sales rely 100% on the honor system. <\/p>\n<p>Those wishing to sell a wanted to by item, please click <A HREF=\"mailto:samandmayasgrandpa@att.net?subject=I would like to supply a wanted to Buy item and I agree to pay five percent of the original asking price\">here<\/A> to shoot me an e-mail. Once I get your e-mail I will send you the Items for Sale Info e-mail. If you agree to all the usual terms we will work together to determine a fair price and then I will put you in touch with the prospective buyer. If a sale is not completed within two weeks, you agree that I will list the item for sale in a blog post and on the Used Gear page. In addition, you agree not to sell the item to the person who originally wanted to buy the item. As always, we rely on the honor system. Once the seller cashes the check they will pay me 5% of the original asking price.
