It's been too long since anybody did this, so here's some advice to relatively new people who are usually a bit confused & by no fault of their own, not knowledgable of the history of the EDAs or these Jewel mailing lists. First of all--WELCOME! Since the list FAQ is almost 4 years old & extremely out of date (now THERE'S a worthy project! Hint! Hint!), it's understandibly difficult for new subscribers to get a grip on all that goes on in this large community. These lists, as you can probably sense, have facilitated the developement of many personal relationships among listmembers. The EDAs have also gone beyond the boundaries of the NET & have participated in quite a few great outside projects geared toward helping others as well as meeting in larger groups at music & non-music related events. The purpose of this email is to give new folks a hand at finding the best resources to help with understanding this group called The EDAs. I promise any new person who takes the time to visit these sites, that you will enjoy the lists much more, feel right at home & be as knowledgable as most seasoned vets. (And those grumpy old vets will appreciate your effort.) I'm sure many of you new folks want to know more, but may not know how to educate yourself about the goings-on here. So here's some helpful suggestions for you. Please take the time to check these out. It's painless, I promise & actually fun. The EDA List Guide: http://www.spectra.net/~ducksoup This website is THE BEST resource to learn about these mailing lists, basic Jewel knowledge (so you don't have to wonder about simple things or ask questions that have been answered a thousand times.) Just by knowing the content on this site, you will immediately fit in, feel much more comfortable & enjoy yourself here. REALLY! The Official Jewel Site: http://www.jeweljk.com This is Jewel's official site featuring the latest accurate news, tourdates, TV appearance info, Jewel Merchandise, Higher Ground For Humanity, Multimedia, photos & more. The best site for current information! Pieces Of Jewel: http://jewel.zoonation.com/ Adam Longfellow's incredible site is the longest running fan site & has the best & most extensive historical content of any Jewel site. (Also, for a list of over 1000 Jewel Performances check http://jewel.zoonation.com/jchrono.htm) Crashboy's EDA Page: http://thespis.com/crashboy/ This site has photos galore of various EDA gatherings all over North America. See for yourself many of the people responsible for the folklore of this list & get inspired to join in! The EDAFoundation: http://www.EveryDayAngels.org The EveryDay Angels Foundation is a non-profit public benefit corporation whose mission is to promote grassroots volunteerism and community involvement. Inspired, created & managed by fellow listmembers who are devoting time & effort to promote activities that directly effect positive change in the world & to help focus the energy of the EDAs as a force to effect positive change. Watch for their posts & find out how you can get involved while having a lot of fun in the process! Gerritt's Jewel Page: http://www.endor.org/jewel/ Another long time site with a lot of great content as well as the best source BY FAR for finding links to all other Jewel sites. Atlantic Records: http://www.atlantic-records.com Jewel's record company's site featuring current news, contests & few complete webcasts of Jewel available. And finally, almost the entire history of this list is archived online at: http://www.smoe.org/lists/jewel/archives/ Here is the entire day to day history of this list referenced chronilogically. Not only is this a great resource for historical info, but if you are new or gone for a while, you can go here to read the past few days at any time. There's plenty more of course, but these sites in particular will definitely eleviate most of your confusion & will allow you to have a lot more fun way faster! Help everyone on the list by helping yourself to these resources. Welcome & enjoy!

I see the link to that room on every Jewel web page I go to but nobody is ever there. We should organize a chat some time and all go to it! But not on AOL since not everyone has it. Also, where are all of the EDA's from PA? Thanks! Ryan "The Uncommon Angel" ro196179@worldnet.att.net ------------------------------ End of jewel-digest V4 #111 ***************************
