Sounds like you are the elitist jerk. A couple of days ago I wrote a long explanation about how a person could have trouble getting off a list and also how some useless idiot could manipulate the system to abusively get people stuck on the list. I suggest you go find that posting and then if you really want off the list and aren't just hanging here to exploit the opportunity to run your foul mouth and trash people who are trying to get work done, then you will try to work with the list administrators and help them help you get this taken care of. Abusive language will not help. It just makes more of us ignore you. ////jerry > On 4/14/07, Bill Moran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >In response to Hangmn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > >> GET ME OFF THIS FUCKING LIST > > > >That's a powerfully effective method of getting things done. > > > >First off, the use of the word FUCKING is a well-known method to convince > >people to come to your aid.
