panic in detroit

Yes, I know you are seeing some messages twice - I apologize for that and
I've fixed the problem, however there is a fair amount of duplicated in
the mail in the queue which has yet to get out. I'll try and spare the
digest-list folk from seeing the duplicates.

Also, some Canadians recently complained about being put on without their
knowlege - as it turned out the program I use to manage splitting the
main VRML list into 19 sublists was messing up and anyone with a .ca
address on the list wasn't getting mail. I don't know how long this has
been going on, but evidently a while. I'm even more suprised no one
complained before... hmm.

I could go into about 5 rants right now (how mailing lists are really
awful distribution systems, about how the lack of standard message
non-delivery messages makes my life hell, about how majordomo really has
no fail-safe mode, etc etc) but I won't. Suffice it to say I will be a
very happy camper when this is a newsgroup and the mlist can focus
narrowly as an IETF-WG-ish forum.

Brian
