I am two of those 13 "concealed" subscribers.  I choose to have my
e-mail address hidden from the list given out in response to a REVIEW
command to lessen the possibility of it falling into the hands of
spammers.  Of course, the fact the archives appear on the WWW sort of
defeats that strategy (since I actually post to the list)...

Btw, the difference in numbers that AB sees may be due to the number of
people getting a digested version of the list probably being lower than
the total number of subscribers.  He may be seeing the number of
"digest" subscribers.

Oh, and the number of subscribers is also reported when you read the
online archives via the WWW.

Cheers,

Paul.
