I hate the new look of the list

I know that new things on my computer are sometimes an improvement so
I try to reserve judgement at first. (while gritting my teeth
usually.) And sometimes once I get used to it I am happier. But I
don't seem to be getting over this. I still hate it. I don't like the
way only 5 of my groups are listed on my list. I don't like how I feel
like Alice in Wonderland where everything is backwards. First is
really last, previous is really next etc. I am still not used to the
teeny tiny font as I write this.
The only redeeming thing I have found now is that you are less likely
to accidentally post to the list instead of the author.
Can we all band together and give Yahoo frequent feedback to at least
let us have the old version available?
Grumble, grumble.....

Send a complaint to Yahoo!! I did, not that it will
make a difference, but if enough of us do it may!!
Glad I'm not the only one,

Yeh, what is the problem with that first/last/previous/next stuff
anyway? It is completely backward -- must have a left-handed dyslexic
doing their programming (now don't flame me on that -- it is meant
sarcastically, I have nothing against left-hand people or dyslexics).
I also don't like the way when I am typing a message, the last few
letters of a line disappear off the edge of the editing window until I
do a hard return.
I sent several feedback messages both about the list appearance and
the administrative features. I am certainly not against change, but
this does seem like a change for the worse.
Somebody mentioned e-mail and I do have some of the regional LB groups
on e-mail, but there are just too many messages coming from this list -
- even to direct them into their own folder in my inbox, it would just
be a lot of clutter. Also it is much harder to follow a thread up the
line using e-mail.
On the positive side.. I do like the "clean" look it has by using a
leaner, non-serif type face for the sidebar and adding more white
space. Just don't like the additional advertising on the home pages
and the extra fluff you get in the message list and on the My Groups
page. Now if they really wanted to add something useful to the My
Groups page, they could take away the picture and add "last message"
time.

I sent in my $0.02 to Yahoo as well -
1. Put the message numbers back next to the messages!
2. All we need is the headers, please.
3. Put it back into "order" again.
Thankyouverymuch.
