Dear Fellow Museum-Listers, Given the frequent (need I add, desperate) pleas from fellow Museum-L'ers for instructions on how to leave our happy list, I thought the following instructions re: unsubscribing might prove amusing. Believe it or not, this actually came off a lawyers list, which just goes to prove that even lawyers sometimes have a sense of humor! Cheers, Paula Freedman San Francisco >Here's a copy of the memo I got regarding list commands. Hope this helps. >Phil > >--------------BEGIN QUOTED MATERIAL--------- >Here are instructions for getting off the list. Note that the >procedure is quite different from that of getting ON the list, >as you might expect. > > > >First, ask your Internet Provider to mail you an Unsubscribing Kit. >Then follow these directions. > >The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on >requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating >System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be >dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have >fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large "X" >outlet hose. Twist the silver-coloured ring one inch below the >connection point until you feel it lock. > >The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the >small switch on the lip. When securing, twist the ring back to its >initial condition, so that the two orange lines meet. Disconnect. Place >the dalkron unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear. Activate >by pressing the blue button. > >The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red >release switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be >adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release button. >The opening is self-adjusting. To secure after use, press the green >button, which simultaneously activates the evaporator and returns the >Cin-Eliminator to its storage position. > >You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator . If >the red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator requirements has >not been properly implemented. Press the "List Guy" call button on the >right of the evaporator. He will secure all facilities from his control >panel. > >To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in the >clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet >immediately below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with you. On >the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will see a >"Shower seal" button. Press to activate. A green light will then be >illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob, select the desired >setting. Now depress the Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe normally. > >The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless you >activate the "Manual off" override switch by flipping it up. When you >are ready to leave, press the blue "Shower seal" release button. The door >will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro slippers and place >them in their container. > >If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue >button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A & B. The knob >to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low, medium >or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested. > >After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by >switching to the "ON" position the clearly marked red switch. If during >the unsubscribing operation, you wish to change the settings, place the >"manual off" override switch in the "OFF" position. You may now make the >change and repeat the cycle. When the green exit light goes on, you may >log off and have lunch. Please close the door behind you. >----------------END QUOTED MATERIAL--------------- >
