These lists are some that you may find useful. Always
read a new list for a few days or weeks before jumping in. That way you'll
understand the rules and the topics that people touch on.
In general terms when subscribing to any of these lists
you want to keep the subject line of your email empty, and include only
the sub info in the body. Some lists require you to respond before you
are signed up.
And! Always keep the messages from the list that tell
you how to unsubscribe. Sooner or later you'll need it.
