Sorry 'bout that. Dennis once suggested that it be called Woofers
after I forwarded a message about a moose near Fairbanks. :-)

Sorry to be causing you difficulty. I have a separate "chatless" list in
my email address book from which I've been forwarding additional messages
including ones sent to me from Skip's list. I've just removed you
from that list. Hope this will decrease your mail.

Since you are subscribed to both obol and tweeters duplication seems
inevitable because people can post the same message to both groups at the
same time.

Anyone else receiving too many messages with the headers below please
contact me directly! Thanks, --Dan
