The page was generated automatically. To "gain control" of it you probably have to create a new page with the same title. It should come up with an error message since the name is in use. From there you should get a contact form where you can explain the situation. It must be done by an official representative of the society. That's what I gather from their FAQs. It would be a good way to promote the society and can be set up where only the official rep can post to it, or selected groups or people. Once set up it can be left alone w/o fear of spam etc if the restrictions are set up correctly. Tim Chapman On Jul 30, 2011, at 9:54 AM, "J.E.
