RE: BIB2/XD/DC's 'title'

OK I hate those incompetemt wimps who haven't a clue how to subscribe or unsubscribe from lists but you guys have me beat.  Until I get some sort of reply to my repeated requests for information as to how I get off this list I will send a message to the list in reply to every message I get from it.

Sorry folks but I did my best and failed.
