The fault is with the list administrator and he should correct the problem by deleting the offenders from the list. It's a little like having a few noisy kids in the classroom. If they aren't asked to leave, the other kids pay the price by not learning. I personally find it quite extraordinary that the individuals concerned can be so oblivious to the desires of the other subscribers. The lack of their concern tells something about their general attitude towards other humans. Paradoxically, I thought that this was a list for people who cared. Why are they on it?Anton Ljutic Ottawa, Canada
