I share your frustration, Dan - and so do many others, I think. Although I don't want to upset all the good folk who find the list so useful, I do like your idea of flooding the list with rubbish if it's the only way of getting something done. I'm going to give it another couple of days and then I'll join you. Can I suggest in the meantime that all of us in the same boat complain to freelists.org. They seemed very sensitive about spam the last time I emailed them, though I still didn't get any results. Perhaps if we all complain about the bad reputation this list is giving freelists we might get something moving there. To those of you who want to be on the list - I'm guessing you would be as glad to get shut of us as we'd be to get off the list. If you have names, email addresses or phone numbers of the people 'responsible' for this list, please let us have them so that we can sort this out. Someone is letting you and us down badly here.
