[Air-l] Craigslist Demographics

I've seen newbies use "listserv", an appropriation of LSoft's product name
akin to informal use of Band-Aid, Levi's, Coke, Kleenex, and Clorox. 

But I've never seen "the List Serve" (two words, capitalized, with an added
"e") and am surprised to be introduced to it by an AoIR member and director
of a Center for Internet Research. Is that common in Colorado, or in
business circles, or among commercial Centers? Or am *I* the newbie?

Curious indeed.
