I received an invitation from them, but when I went to the URL for my
list's entry, it was blank, waiting for me to fill it out.  As I could have
remained unlisted by simply not visiting the site or by not filling out the
forms, I didn't have the same reaction as Chuq.  Had it already been filled
out, forcing me to take action to get it out of there if I didn't want it
there, I'd have felt as he did.

If you still have the URL and can go there to fix typos, why don't you go
there and delete it all?  You can leave just one comment: "Subscriptions may
not be requested via List Zone."

My entries were correct because I entered them myself.  As long as they do
not make a clickable subscribe-me-now link (and they said they don't intend
to do that by default when they finally get around to doing it), there's
nothing on that page that I don't voluntarily post to Usenet every month.
