Nope.  Attempted to re-s*bscribe a number of times.  Now I'm posting 
from a brand-new Gmail account.  Personally, I think there's a 
variety of things going on.  I turned off *all* of my filtering at my 
ISP and still couldn't re-s*bscribe to the Oly List (in fact, I got 
zero info from the Listserver software, even after repeated requests).

By the by, I have found out that the Oly List appears to be 
blacklisted by SpamCop, which *many* popular mailserver softwares use 
to help filter incoming messages.  The List-nannies might wanna see 
why that's happened, and perhaps get it un-blacklisted.
