I just wanted to apologize to the list for "whining like a 4 year old". I was upset that I was not "adult" enough to save the welcome message I received when I joined the list. I thought that if I acted like a jerk someone would get upset and either kick me off the list or at least give me instructions to do so myself. I was right. I joined this list knowing next to nothing about cryptography. I have learned quite a bit from those who have actually posted worthwhile mail and would like to thank them. I realize that a public list is very hard to maintain, we have just begun offering listservs to our faculty and we are already having problems. So thanks to those of you who have sent me messages on how to unsubscribe. Once again, I am sorry for the whining.
