Sorry about not responding earlier, I was on vacation.  That is exactly 
what I intended.  I didn't see extend when I was looking up information 
on lists.  Thanks.

I was thinking about what you mentioned in an earlier message about this 
handler not catching the command requests like subscribe, unsubscribe, 
etc.  I think I have a possible solution but I want to think about it 
some more then ask about it.

Thanks for the help on the handler,
Chris
