Morning And so Aol user sez on Sunday 20 October 2002 02:32: > To subscribe to Conspiracy Theory Research List[CTRL] send email: > SUBSCRIBE CTRL [to:] [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > To UNsubscribe to Conspiracy Theory Research List[CTRL] send email: > SIGNOFF CTRL [to:] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It might be me, it might be the time of the day or the frustration about the people in general but: If people subscribe to mailing-lists why do they not try to understand how they work? Okay, there can be problems, but every day (almost) I find posts in mailing-lists like "please, unsubscribe me" "how do I get off this list?" "I was not prepared to get this much e-mails. You have not told me. Please delete my adress" I wonder if those people sign contracts and then say "oooops - I want to get out of this contract, please do delete my signature" Well, I think that most of the people will be able to read the contract again, to see what is written on it, to check what they have to do to get out of the contract. Why is this not possible if is comes to mailing-lists? I mean, if you take the ctrl-list, the posts there do include the following: ****** <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== (snip) Archives Available at: (snip) To UNsubscribe to Conspiracy Theory Research List[CTRL] send email: SIGNOFF CTRL [to:] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So why not read the mails and find out what to do? Why not go to the homepage and find some contact-address? Why not do anything else than writing a post in the mailing-list "please unsubscribe me" We have a mailing-list at STOP1984, too Infact we have three of them. And I think if somebody decides to subscribe he or she should know how to unsubscribe - but instead the mailing-list is flooded with questions like "how do I unsubscribe? how do I change my e-mail-address..." etc. etc. (sigh) Twister - -- Wer der Demokratie die Lebensluft zum Atmen erhalten will, muss dafür streiten, dass dieses Land nicht weiter mit Riesenschritten auf dem Weg in den Überwachungsstaat marschiert...

Proselytizing propagandic screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis- directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
