Andy,
    I agree that it is irritating to get all these "please remove me from
the list messages."  However, these people don't send their message to the
list just to irritate you (and me).  They do it becuase they don't know
any better.  So telling them about the XXX-REQUEST@HOST standard is
reasonable and useful;  indulging in gratuitous insults and threats is
not.  C'mon, Andy Scott Beals:  we are people out here, not extensions
of your computer terminal.  And there was a time when even you did not
know what you were doing.

PS - My apologies to the people on the list who didn't want to see this.
