Have a guess why those postings have a from line as me?  Could it be
because it's a cron job which runs under my user id to take the web
page and mail it to the list once a week?  Or could it be some mind
control experiment?

I'm sorry the FAQ doesn't tell you who the admins for the mailing list
are.  That subject hasn't been a FAQ by people actually on these lists -
as in "who runs these lists?"  I'm sorry I didn't think of it when I
wrote the original FAQ.  I'm sorry others who helped me write the
thing didn't think of it either.

But really what I find offensive from you above is that you're attributing
malace where there is none.  That is why I'm threatening to pull these
mailing lists - I've had enough of people like you firing crap like that
at me and having to defend myself against it on my own, normally very
badly.
