I just mailed the list to point out that I had registered the address
god at linuxmail.org. This is kinda funny, you have to admit. I  was amazed
that nobody registered it already.

It isn't my bloody fault if every thing that I send into the social list
causes some friends of mine to reply with 'utter bullshit'
I have to agree that there have been too many way off topic messages on
this list. But then again if you don;t live in Dublin the social list 
is pointless 90% of the time.
