Ths bad list admin didn't do squat for the list, truth be told, never mind back it up. And it was run on the most pathetic excuse for listmanager software I ever heard of before or since. On a fscking Mac to boot. It's damn amazing the thing *ever* worked!

Not *Carnegie's*, CMU's *English Server*. Christ, CMU is a major geek school -- the geeks would never put up with that shit. Only sombody from the Humanities would think of running an abortion like that thing.
