[Newspoetry] could you remove my address?

[Joe Futrelle]

Hello,

Very sorry about that.  Please note that the mailing list archives are 
web-accessible (this is explained in the Newspoetry FAQ).  Of course I did 
not publish your address and phone number on the website proper along with 
your poem.

I will rewrite the website so this is clearer (we need a privacy policy, 
obviously).

I technically do not know how to modify the mailing list archives to delete 
your phone number, but I will ask the mailing list administrator for 
help.  After this is done, it will still take some time for the information 
to be updated in search engines' caches (it typically takes several days or 
weeks for search engines to catch up with changes on low-traffic web pages 
like Newspoetry).

The safest approach to keeping your phone number private is to not include 
it in your messages in the first place.  But of course like all websites we 
must do our part and unambiguously inform readers about the public nature 
of our mailing list.
