To unsubscribe from the IGALA list

[Kira Hall]

Dear Sean C Lynch Painting and others,

For those of you who want to unsubscribe from the list, please do so  
yourself, instead of adding even more emails to our disgruntled  
subscriber email collections.

Below is the unsubscribe info that Mary Bucholtz sends out to the  
list periodically and that you received in an email when you  
subscribed to the list. Good luck. I'm certain you can figure it out.

Kira
