You may choose to the Daily Discussion Group either by individual email or daily digest and/or you may access them at your convenience at Yahoo.com.
In the application form, you may indicate that you do not want to receive the emails and would prefer to read Discussions online. In that case, you will need to register with Yahoo.com to access Discussions which will also enable you to respond while the discussion is active.
We encourage you to select e-mail delivery because the Discussion Group is AOK's most important interactive deliverable. However, we respect the limits of your time. If you choose to receive this service via e-mail, you can opt out later if you must. And, once you have registered at Yahoo.com, you can reset your preferences on your listserv account at any time. If you choose not to receive some of them by e-mail, you will receive instructions on accessing them online.
