I've removed all the ea.oac.uci.edu addresses, but I'm posting this to

the list in case anybody else is interested in the end of the story. I

got a reply from the postmaster at UCI last night saying that somebody

had gotten into an account on their system and set up scripts to subscribe

lots of people to lots of lists. Why anybody would find that amusing I

don't know. I found it highly unamusing to sit there deleting sixty-seven

addresses yesterday. And I started wondering what a mess the mailboxes of

the innocent victims would be in if the prankster included any really

active lists in the game-playing. At least ADS-L has low volume.
