How to unsubscribe and be nice to Terry.

Folks,

I just noted two messages to the list asking to be unsubscribed.
While we had to do it that way when Phil J. ran the list, it can now be
done automatically. Really that saves Terry a lot of time and he still
will have enough messages and things he has to deal with from the list.
Besides he may even want to have some time to get some chemistry
research done this summer. I include directions I received from the
list, which I think are pretty good. Note if you are really computer
literate, this is not done by listserv commands, but like them you send
the message to somewhere else. In this case it goes to
evolution-request and in the subject just type unsubscribe.
Unfortunately I and the rest of us won't know you have left the list,
but it will make life easier for our list manager. I include a bit of
the message I got from Calvin, when I resubscribed, in case this is not
crystal clear. If that doesn't work feel free to send a personal note to
Terry.
