Hi,

I know very well that what I will do now will very probably get me
flamed or
being in put in the killfile of many/some in this list.
But this was something I couldn't stand.

If you are afraid of loosing your job or getting into trouble, you
should better receive this mailing-list at our private mail account,
not at your job account.

If you receive it at your private account, no one will monitor you and
you are completely free to do what _you_ want.

AND you don't waste the time and money of your employers by reading
private mail in working time.

OR - even better - you should quit your job at once.

So, do you have the Gestapo on your back?
