It's cool people, this yahoo group will continue so we can all keep
in contact, it's just the Clear Light band site that will be
disappearing for a while. In the meantime a lot of work will be going
on in the background as Mike Stax and I continue to carry out
research and interviews for the comprehensive Clear Light articles in
Ugly Things. I'm really excited by these developments as it provides
a chance to really get the full story of the group in to print and
therefore preserved in a less transient form than the internet, which
we can see is pretty ephemeral, as sites come and go.

It's not the end, merely the beginning of something new!
