Mr. Sidibeh, thanks for setting the records straight on who is who on the delisting list. I do hope that subscribers understand that the List is not a free for all "Ganaw Marche" (behind Albert Market) play ground. Like all other lists at St. Johns University we are required to abide by these policies. I hope it helps put our actions in perspective.

time to time it is always nice to make your presence known
by sending a post letting us all know how you are doing.
