Dear List Members;

  Although I am no longer a member of your list, since I have received 
so many (over 10) letters from members of your list on this subject, I 
am CCing some private mail to the list.

Moronic replies like this one are the "best" letters I got. I know peter 
was just trying to be helpful, and perhaps it is wrong for me to call 
his reply (not him) moronic. however, there were some truly moronic 
replies:

Somenoe said:
"It's not working because you're not spelling it right".
Hahahaha. Well, what about the first two times? Did you see them? no. So 
maybe they went through?

"It's not working because you're posting it to the list not listserv.. 
etc"

Gee. I guess you don't read mail headers. Oh, and did you see the first 
two tries? No, I guess not. I guess you don't see much, user.

Someone said:
"Try going to the mailing list webserver"
Ok, like I said, what about the first two times?

Do you really think that I would come here if I didn't try the web 
server first?

Someone else said:
Oh whatever. I don't care. I know this is garbage mail--this is me 
flaming the list for not being careful. Might as well flame me back, but 
if I get any flames from the people that moronically flamed me out the 
first time I am going to have a real good laugh. maybe evem print them 
out and post them on my office wall as a testament to human stupidity.

p.s. Thanks to the people that DID help, notably DJ Delorie.
