I'm pretty sure this group isn't big enough to keep a separate list 
going (there have already been a few lists, e.g., the aquatic flow 
cytometry list, that have died out); more to the point, a lot of the 
traffic I would expect there to be on a microbial list may be of more 
general interest. Since Paul Robinson doesn't object to having us 
post things on the Purdue List, it makes sense to stay there. Any 
particular reason why you prefer "MICROFLOW" to "[Microbial]," which 
I had suggested as a subject heading? We are talking about working 
with microbes; there are others who build microfluidic flow 
cytometers who sometimes refer to what they are doing as "microflow."
