I fail to see the distinction in this case, as it did go to the list. Yes, the list was LSOFT-ANNOUNCE rather than LSTOWN-L, but I still have no gripes about it as Eric has selected those most likely to have an interest in the material as subscribers. I imagine you can get off the list any time you want (no, I haven't checked, 'cause I don't want off). As I recall, Eric set up this synthetic list some time ago and anyone who wanted off only had to say so. Douglas Winship Austin, Texas [log in to unmask] Secondary AUTOCAT Listowner
