So complaining about it and pointing out what has been discussed here a few times by others will do what? I have two other friends waiting to get their subscriptions approved as well. As someone who moderates his own list, I can tell you that it's difficult enough to always have a handle on things, especially if you have other things going on in your life. This list as a heck of a lot larger than mine, and both mods here, who I do know, have plenty going on in their lives. Again, be patient and it will be taken care of by them. If the way they handle this list is objectionable to you, there are other lists out there then. Just write to the mods off list again and they will take care of it when they can. Otherwise, complaining about it is only taking up bandwidth and inbox space at this point.
