How prevalent is the silent "t"

[James Harbeck]

>Is it possible that they are being maliciously subscribed by other parties?

Not very flattering to us to think it would be malicious to the
subscribees... But if malicious to us, well, I'm sure there could be
someone(s) lurking on the list who collect email addresses of
particularly crusty and dull sorts and subscribe them just to throw a
bobcat in the swimming pool. I was wondering about that earlier today.
