[Dixielandjazz] Geography of DJML

[Scott Anthony]

The San Francisco Traditional Jazz Foundation has just started signing up 
people on an email list (hint, hint), and we are asking for name, email 
address (of course), zip code, and country. Having the zip code will allow 
us to target our announcements. This might be a good addition for future 
DJML signup.

By the way, go to www.sftradjazz.org and click on "Mailing list" at the top 
right of the page to sign up if you would like! (Hint, hint)
