Changes to the TB Lists

2005-04-01 Thread Leif Gregory
Hello all,

It's with a heavy heart that we (the moderators) have finally come to
a point in our lives where the TB lists have become so successful that
it has begun to seriously impact our ability to lead a normal life.

In our time as moderators, some of us have lost wives and girlfriends,
our children, gone into debt and filed for bankruptcy. I myself was
relegated to living in a cardboard box on the corner of Central and
Lomas hacking my way into the nearby Starbucks wi-fi network each day
so that I might continue my duties as a moderator.

It is more than an obsession. It's a calling. A calling to duty which
transcends this world and all Earthly possessions. We, the moderators,
have devoured the EMA scale. EMA5 is nothing to us. A minor deity in
our pitiful universe of self absorption and obsession. No longer are
we bound to our mortal bodies, for we are one with the ether, one with
the RFCs, one with e-mail. We are The Bat! therefore, we are all that
is e-mail. We see all you write, we see all you read. Feed us. Feed us
like a spammer would gorge the world on their offal.

From today forward, to remain a subscriber to our realm of goodness on
the TB lists, it'll cost you $5,000 per month.

Yes, this may seem steep. A burden unbearable. But please, remember,
that'll buy us a whole boatload of Big Macs with a large fry and a
coke.

Hi Leif Gregory,

Friday, April 1, 2005 
you let us know -at least in parts- :

 From today forward, to remain a subscriber to our realm of goodness on
 the TB lists, it'll cost you $5,000 per month.



Yes, and since this is April 1st I found on Ritlabs site -only for a
short moment before the site got inaccessible- the announcement that the
upcoming major release version will be 3.5.


Anyway: Leif, you are invited for a free coke and a burger when you're
in town, okay?

Hello Leif,

Not bad! In Spain and other European countries we use a , instead of
decimal point. So, to me, what you said, and I have it writing, is that
the cost is $5 per month. Not bad ;-)
