ADMIN 1. if you wish to unsubscribe, please see the info at the bottom of EVERY post: Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm; Remember, telling the entire list that you'd like to unsubscribe is like announcing to a room full of people that you are going to the toilet. It's not only embarrassing, but there is a very good chance that none of them will care! 2. Although tempting, please refrain from answering these types of emails. This just adds chatter to the list. Thanks for your patience! Russ *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
