Here, you should have emailed me about this offlist (I'm the GE list 
admin, and the email address is at the bottom of the subscribe page), I 
would have taken good care of you.  ;)

Don't cry! :)  

Forget about that list... it was my bad, I jumped the gun creating it, 
and I revoke it appologetically.  It never existed, nor should have the 
topic about it here.

You better decide if you _really_ want to be on all the lists... the 
reason there are separate lists is because there is a lot of 
conversation that not everyone needs to know about.  Not that they 
don't care, but that email time is limited.  OBOS/GE/BeUnited lists 
alone, plus my other involvements have me pulling in nearly 200 BeOS-
related email a day - all of which I _want_ to read, most I _want_ to 
reply to - but there's only so much time in the day.

Careful what you wish for.  ;)
