You mean the "GaiaMaster" didn't like getting all the messages in a single 
digest, or didn't approve of the contents?

It seems like the biggest rash of unsubscribers appear at the end or 
beginning of the school year.  I wonder if most of them are sent by some 
administrator cleaning up expired student accounts.  If so, they probably 
wouldn't know (or care) what the proper address is to send the message to.  
They simply generate an "unsubscribe" message and sent it to whatever list 
the messages come from.

Even that waould be a step up from the the typical message on r.a.d.  :)

I like your new signature line.  Hope it doesn't cause an avalanche or 
anything like that... :)
