Likewise to you, Mark!
 
Funny thing about e-mail lists and their subscribers.... One might think  
that librarians and others in related educational fields might have clues 
about  how some of this technology works. WRONG-O, gigabyte breath! I oversee a 
good  three dozen or so Listserv e-mail lists as part of my job at the NYS  
Library, and it never ceases to amaze me how people on those lists can 
ignore  both generic and customized "welcome" messages sent them, not to mention 
pretty  clear details on how to handle basics of leaving the list or 
changing  subscription options that are included in footers attached to each  
message.
 
The difference between you and me is mostly in that the politically and  
financially near-bankrupt State of New York tosses me some money every couple 
of  weeks for putting up with all that. Oh, in fairness, I will say that 
there are  many, many folk who get caught when their library or other employer 
goes and  screws up their e-mail client and/or changes userids without 
warning and often  without a grace period. I'm happy to help them out, and most 
of them are  grateful.
 
Hang in there; even we PITA AOL subscribers (especially we AOL subscribers) 
 truly appreciate all your efforts!
