Hmmm... I once unsubscribed from one email address and subscribed
under another, then after I had too many problems I wen back to my
original email address. If I had made one of these unsubscribe errors
when I did that, then you'd never get any of my ruby-talk postings!

Maybe that's a good thing.  :-)
