Welcome to Club Life-Net, of Life-Net News & Radio.

I'm your host, Ret Zogreso (retiarius7). I record and produce an online-radio series called Life-Net Radio. I also feed a Twitter timeline called Life-Net News. Both these media outlets address poverty and its many ramifications and related issues and ideas.

I don't get paid, so I also work part time for money. Naturally, it's usually a struggle to find enough time to do this better. Maybe someday someone'll find me a way to dump the jobs and devote all my time to this.

Club LIFENET switched to the "moderated" option in late 2006 when ordinary bulk e-mail became too difficult and the Club became the way to get Life-Net News 'letters and Radio announcements out to our subscribers. You're as welcome as you ever were to post here, though. I'll just have to make sure it meets our criteria before I let it pass to all our subscribers, that's all. (If you think your message fits in with the rest of our stuff, it probably does.)

Privacy Note: Any of your posts may be so interesting or useful that I'll feel compelled to ask your permission to use your message in other Life-Net media.
