    Those who have the solid information? :-)
    
    I'm alarmed at the number of (presumed) security people who can't figure 
    out how to unsubscribe from a mailing list. If they can't manage that, 
    what hope have they against the wiley hacker?
    
    Even so, I fully agree that the list needs more focus.  It needs a 
    charter. If that doesn't work, then it needs moderation. But a charter 
    comes first, else the moderator doesn't know what to filter.
    
    ObSecurity: I've received about three copies of that new virus (I forget 
    the name) in the last 24 hours. No impact on me (Linux mail client) but 
    one of our business guys got bit. Anyone else getting hammered?
