subscribe to STAT-L?
If you are using SCI.STAT.CONSULT, your USENET reader software should have a menu pick or a command that will allow you to subscribe to SCI.STAT.CONSULT. Every reader is different, so please consult your help file or your local computer guru. To subscribe to STAT-L, send a message to LISTSERV@LISTS.MCGILL.CA with a single line: SUB STAT-L First-name Last-name in the body of the text. Please be sure that you send the message to LISTSERV@LISTS.MCGILL.CA and not to STAT-L@LISTS.MCGILL.CA. If you send your subscription request to STAT-L, hundreds of people will see your message and none of them will be able to subscribe you to the list. Some in fact will flame you for not reading these instructions more carefully. It’s sort of like a newspaper which has a circulation desk and a letters-to-the-editor desk. If you want to start delivery of the paper you send it to the circulation desk. If you want to start delivery of STAT-L, you send the request to LISTSERV.
