Guest guest Posted April 13, 2000 Report Share Posted April 13, 2000 Dear Pam, I have searched for your post " Dying To Be Thin " . Somehow I missed it and I would love to read it. I'm must confess that I am confused. What is the oneline? Is it the same as egroups? I've searched for something called oneline but I can't find it. Can you shed some light on this for me? Also, I would love for you to be my mentor if you could.
