First, anyone who has trouble getting off the list can email me (each message has a footer describing who to email).
HOWEVER, I would also suggest that the number of requests to get off the list would be kept to a minimum if we can keep the subject to LINGO and not Mac vs PC, or Novell, or Flash, or whatever. There's lots of other forums for the other subjects.
