    This list is now at a trial stage. So don't be bores :-< do contribute,
    comment, feedback (or list will discontinue :-< ). BE INTERACTIVE!
    Plus Feel free to jam your buddies to list.
    Also, as JAM is managed on an academic account, it comes with a
    requirement to deal with any unjammy mail such as practical problems-
    questions you might have (ocean/earth sciences only). Try and an answer
    might even come up! However, JAM is still young and thus mainly for fun.

    The la-social list is run out of the surfcty.com domain, which at the
    moment is one UUCP hop from the Internet.  Because of this, messages
    aren't mirrored instantaneously.  On average, it seems to take about

    competition.  Some members often meet up at matches home, away, and

    kop" as one subscriber put it -- so while fellow whites will feel at
    home straightaway, fans of other teams might not be so comfortable.
    Nevertheless, other fans do occasionally subscribe, and only if they
    seek to create trouble are they ever asked to leave.

    To subscribe, send a message to [e-mail] which says:

    death, thought, time, fear, envy, meditation, beauty etc.  Everybody is

    him/herself and the world we find ourselves in.  It is not necessary to

    innermost problems of mankind ie., ourself.

List-Managers
    Contact: [e-mail] (Brent Chapman)

    Purpose: There was a "Mailing Lists" workshop session at the
    USENIX System Administration Conference (LISA VI) in Long Beach,
    CA, on October 22, 1992.  The participants in that workshop
    expressed a desire for a mailing list for discussions of issues
    related to managing Internet mailing lists, including (but not
    limited to) software, methods, mechanisms, techniques, and
    policies.

    I've created the list as "[e-mail]".
    That address is a direct mail relector: all messages sent to
    that address are immediately forwarded to the list.  There is a
    digestified version of the list available as "List-Managers-
    [e-mail]".  The digestified version has exactly
    the same messages as the direct version; the messages are
    simply bundled into digests daily (or more frequently, if
    traffic warrants).  Both lists are unmoderated.

    To join the List-Mangers mailing list, send the command

    subscribe list-managers

    in the body of a message to "[e-mail]".  If
    you want to subscribe something other than the account the
    mail is coming from, such a a local redistribution list, then
    append that address to the "subscribe" command; for example,
    to subscribe "local-list-managers":

    subscribe list-managers [e-mail]

    To subscribe to the digestified version, substitute "list-
    managers-digest" for "list-managers" in the examples above.

    languages.  It is intended as a tool for experimental linguistics,
    as a medium for communication with computers, and as a possible
    international auxiliary language.

    List participants range from novice to skilled.  Up to 50% of list
    traffic is in the Lojban language.  Novice questions are welcomed.

    Lojban List is an automated listserv.  To be added to the list
    send to the listserv address above:

      subscribe lojban firstname lastname

    The listserver will add you at the address from which it thinks you
    sent the request.  If you need to be added at a different address, or
    need other manual assistance, contact the second address.  The Logical
    Language Group, Inc. asks new subscribers to send a postal mailing
    address to the second address, so that they can be added to the
