It continues to amaze me how few people know that the standard Internet mailing list protocol for adminstrative changes to list foo@site is to send mail to foo-request@site. In this case, requests to be added to, removed from, etc., the self-interest list should go to: self-interest-request@self.stanford.edu. When you send requests for such actions to self-interest you are wasting resources by sending the message to everyone on the list, and annoying us in the bargain. Most of us cannot do anything about your request, either. Thanks, and I now return you to your regularly scheduled mail and news ..... EM
