| I have decided that it is in my best interests to unsubscribe from a.o.l.s and stop posting in a week's time. This is for a variety of reasons, but chiefly as follows: - I am finding myself with less and less time - there's far too much to do - There are persistent untrue allegations being made in some quarters, for example suggestions that ARMed Slack has spyware built in, that it is blowing up computers and that I am a pantomime dame - I have decided that the internet is more of a curse than a blessing, and consequently, I will only be using it for a few hours a year - We are moving house, and I've got to decide where to put all the biscuits, cakes and saucepan handles, because otherwise, who will? If anyone wishes to be able to contact me after the deadline, let me know and I will, if I deem it appropriate, let you know how to do so. I am sorry that it has come to this, but thereagain, I'm not really sorry at all.

The only acceptable reason to reduce time spent for fun but ... not yet accepted since we haven't tried your biscuits ;-) To conclude: you just *cannot* do this.
