While not the list manager (John Chadwick fills that role fabulously),
     I'd be more than happy to help you with your quest.

     The easiest interface may be found at the list's web page, which is
     located at http://home.ease.lsoft.com/archives/museum-l.html.
     The interface is straight forward, allowing searches by date, author,
     subject, and text.

     There is also a method of accessing the archives through e-mail, and
     the FAQ begins to discuss how to access them in this method, as I
     remember. If you have specific questions, I would be pleased to assist
     you off-list.

     From what I can recall of budget discussions on the list, they were
     somewhat limited, but it was not a thread that I followed particularly
     closely.

     Anyway, welcome to the list!

Good morning all.
I apologize for the inconvenience of bothering the entire list, but I
wonder if there is a list manager I can query about accessing the
archives?  I just discovered Museum-L this morning, and I'm
unsuccessfully going in circles trying to retrieve any past discussion
about the recently finalized federal budget!  Thanks for any help...
