[Peace-discuss] listserves, can of worms

Before we 'open a can of worms' (or start blaming
people)...when this has happened in the past, it is
not the moderator of the peace list (or any other
responsible party associated with AWARE) who 'joined'
the peace-discuss list to another organization's
listserve.  It is usually an unsolicited spam sort of
issue.

Be patient and I'm sure it will be cleared up.
