auto-spam of c'punks list

Someone or something bogusly subscribed a bunch of people to the cypherpunks list. Please don't post any more messages running down the "newbies". None of these people subscribed; they were victims of a nasty prank. I just removed 237 people from the c'punks and c'punks-announce lists who appear to have been subscribed by email forgery. I probably missed a few. For the folks who are getting this message and who don't want to be on the cypherpunks list(s), it's easy to unsubscribe. Send email to: majordomo@toad.com that contains these lines: unsubscribe cypherpunks unsubscribe cypherpunks-announce Sorry for any hassle, John
