I guess even more clarifications are  in order, since you seem determined
to  turn my  mailbox into  a  usenet group.  The material  posted to  the
FISH-ECOLOGY list is freely and publicly available via:
 
1. The gopher service at SEARN.SUNET.SE
 
2. The archives for the list, which are GET=ALL.
 
3. The  FISH-JUNIOR list, which  has "Subscription= Open" and  receives a
   copy of all the messages sent to FISH-ECOLOGY.
 
The issue, according  to the list owner, is that  you have been reposting
large numbers of messages  from his list to your list  without his or the
authors' *prior* permission.  Anyway, for whatever reason,  he decided to
delete you from the list. It's his list, you're out, end of story. If you
don't like it,  start your own. Oops,  I forgot, you already  did. So, go
turn your  list into a  highly successful,  1100 subscriber list  and let
FISH-ECOLOGY rot in  peace. Just add Aldo to your  discard list and he'll
do the same. This way we'll all be happy campers.
