However WHENN I subscribed, I did so as blh@nol.net, NOT blh@dazed.nol.net, so yes.. I got a little frustrated with the fact that majordomo in its infinit crappiness, changed my subscribe address and made it a nightmare to unsubscribe. I think you know very little about me, and even less about what you're talking about. I was pleasant and nice for almost 3 months before I got pissed off enough to yell at the list. I sent email to majordomo-owner, root, admin, postmaster, and about a dozen other addresses asking to be removed, nicely, it got me nowhere. You will now however note, that I'm not on the list anymore, sometimes it just takes being an asshole to get things done *shrug*. On Wed, 9 Oct 1996, Jordan K.
