I did exactly what Eric Page told me to do to get off this list, and I
just got this email from Matt Draille.
Conclusion: It is impossible to get off this list, and I suspect any
list he hosts.

Since the beginning, the Matronics List and Forum experience has been
free from
advertising. I have been approached by fair number of vendors wanting
to tap
into the large volume of activity across the various lists hosted here,
but
have always flatly refused. Everywhere you go on the Internet these
days, a
user is pummeled with flashing banners and videos and ads for crap that
they
don't want. Yahoo, Google and that ilk are not "free". The user must
constantly endure their barrage of commercialism thrust into their face
at an
ever increasing rate. Enough is enough, and the Lists at Matronics
choose not
to succumb to that.
That being said, running a service of this size is not "free". It costs
a lot
of money to maintain the hardware, pay for the electricity,
Commercial-grade
Internet Connection, air conditioning, maintenance contracts, etc. etc.
etc. I
choose to hold a PBS-like fund raiser each year during the month of
November
where I simply send out a short email every other day asking the members
to
make a small contribution to support the operation. That being said,
that
contribution is completely voluntary and non-compulsory. Many members
choose
not to contribute and that's fine.
However, a very modest percentage of the members do choose to make a
contribution and it is that financial support that keeps the Lists
running.
And that's it. To my way of thinking, it is a much more pleasant way of
maintaining the Lists and Forums. The other 11 months of the year, you
don't
see a single advertisement or request for support. That's refreshing
and that
is a List and Forum that I want to belong to. I think other people feel
the
same way.
Won't you please take a minute to make your Contribution today and
support
these Lists?
