Thanks, I needed that...

Well, *my* day is off to a great start...

Hi there, AKINRACING,

Yer kindly ol' Unka Bart here, Pleased to meetcha.  I'd like to help you
out, can you recall how you got in here?

No, of course you can't, you already explained that, do forgive me.  What I
meant to ask, is, do you have anyone there who can read english?  If so,
kindly show them this message.

The instructions for leaving this list are in the body of each message you
receive, but I have reproduced them for the use of your more erudite
employee.  She will doubtless understand that sending imperious messages to
the list itself, while doubtless satisfying some inner need of the boss,
are relatively ineffectual as a means of unsubscribing from the list
itself.  In fact, if that had been offered as an option, it would have been
explicitly listed.

You see, we originally *did* offer that as an option, but then we stopped
and thought about it for a moment longer.  After all, someone suggested,
wouldn't it be an amusing diversion to the useful, but ofter dull (to those
not involved in the particular problem being solved by the information)
talk about reapiring window switches, if we could all have a good laugh at
the expense of the terminally clue-impaired, watching them flounder around
getting increasingly frustrated, WHEN THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR UNSUBSCRIBING
ARE WITHIN EACH MESSAGE?

By the way, Please allow yer kindly ol' Unka to be the first to say, "Thank
you!"

Yer kindly ol' Unka Bart
