Eric has already answered this, so further discussion is needless.
But....yes, I said I subbed to over twenty.  Actually I sub to over 50,
though many of them are daily announcement lists, or else lists with very
low traffic (LINKFAIL, for example).  Of at least 50 I sub to there are
over 40 that are the LISTSERV lists, plus a few others that are actually
worth getting for content, despite the fact that they're running on lame
software.
