I joined that group and it doesn't post anything to my FB page.  Correct me if
I'm wrong, but you have to actively go to the group page to see what's there?
I'm not a big user of FB and prior to this, haven't advertized my use of it.
I thought that the group site might be a logical place for people to post
pictures, instead of posting them to this list, where they get dropped and
leave the rest of us wanting.  I wouldn't want it to replace this list, but I
can see where it might augment it.
