I'm not any better at saving things or remembering things than anybody
else. However, after sending several messages saying 'remove' to a
mailing list and not getting removed I'm smart enough to realize that
approach won't work. The I ask myself,"Hmmm, how did I get on this
list in the first place?" Ahhha, I went to linux-mandrake and
subscribed.
I go back to linux-mandrake -- lo and behold! Unsubscribe instructions
(for those who can read) right in front of me. Easy as pie. These
jerks
are to lazy to do anything except annoy others into doing their
legwork.
