Does anyone know the administrator for the AIRS list? I've been trying to update my info for about a year now and always get an error message when I try (sent an email to the webmaster ages ago, no reply).
I know people still use it, but I don't live where I used to anymore...it appears it was last updated in 2010.

Re: A.I.R.S. not updated?
I gave up trying to get updated. I don't think that site is a reliable source of current information any more. I am not certain if this one is accurate either, but I do know that it is at least newer than the AIRS list since somebody made it to attempt to address the issue we are talking about. http://www.aircooledrescue.com/

x2. I've tried changing my info every time I've moved since 2006 without success. Anyone relying on it does so at their peril.sped372 wrote:I gave up trying to get updated. I don't think that site is a reliable source of current information any more.

Re: A.I.R.S. not updated?
A whole ton of us added ourselves to ACR when Chris first created it, and that site is easy to update ourselves so I'm current there - too bad AIRS isn't responding as I've gotten calls on it over the years, and even just posting a redirect link to the ACR and then taking it down would be helpful.

Re: A.I.R.S. not updated?
The nice thing about the old AIRS format is that you could print it out, put it in your glovebox and have a handy list of names and numbers on-hand IF you had a problem no matter where you are. ACR, spiffy as it is, seems to require live 'net access, which can be problematic in places...

Re: A.I.R.S. not updated?
Agreed. I mean you still *can* look up people ahead of time and print them but it's more labor-intensive. The fact that the info is more likely to be correct outweighs the inconvenience I guess.tristessa wrote:The nice thing about the old AIRS format is that you could print it out, put it in your glovebox and have a handy list of names and numbers on-hand IF you had a problem no matter where you are.
