- VN-ATNP
- This is A(n Tu.c No'i Phe't. A mailing list for people to
talk about whatever "No'i Phe't". Let me warn you that the
conversation can get rather racy, risque' at times. Join it
at your own discretion. The only restriction I place on the
list is no flame wars, no name callings, and so on.

- This is a list for the VNese singles, professionals and
students. (There are also some married people in it.)
The focus is on socializing with other VNese singles and
sharing experiences. It is very friendly and enjoyable... :-)
