At the time I explained to you that subscription requests should be sent to Cube-Lovers-REQUEST -- and that this is in fact an Internet-wide convention. In fact, the greeting message I sent you contained the following text: REMEMBER: Our addresses are Cube-Lovers@AI.MIT.EDU for submissions and Cube-Lovers-Request@AI.MIT.EDU for administrivia. Save this message somewhere so you don't forget about Cube-Lovers-Request. If you ever want to be -removed- from Cube-Lovers, your request should be sent to Cube-Lovers-Request. If you forget, and send mail concerning your subscription to the entire list again, you should expect to be severely chastised -- that mistake is considered particularly annoying by Internet old-timers. So here you are, only a month later, screwing up in public -- a particularly pathetic example of inability to follow simple directions. To the rest of you on Cube-Lovers: The paragraph quoted above is now sent to -all- new subscribers (and now all you old-timers have seen it as well), so don't make the mistake that Greg did -- send your administrative requests to -me- (Cube-Lovers-Request@AI.MIT.EDU). If you don't, I have now given you fair warning that I will feel perfectly free to hold you up for public ridicule! - Alan (Cube-Lovers-Request@AI.MIT.EDU)
