This is done to confuse the spam 'bots.

WELCOME TO VTBIRD
VTBIRD is an internet email discussion group for those interested in birding
in Vermont and adjacent areas. This is an UNMONITORED list, which means that
no one is monitoring messages before they are sent out to subscribers.
Therefore, contributers should keep in mind the purpose of this list and
should avoid discourteous and inappropriate messages. The VTBIRD list is
provided courtesy of the Castleton State College Communication Department.
MAILING LIST HELP FILE
Please read the list guidelines (see below) before engaging in discussion.
In addition, familiarize yourself with how the list operates, especially if
you've never participated in an Internet email discussion group before.
It's a good idea to save this message somewhere so you know how to
unsubscribe.
When dealing with a listserver, there are two types of messages, namely,
COMMANDS and POSTS. Unlike traditional listservers which require the
use of numerous email addresses, we have simplified the process by
allowing for both COMMANDS and POSTS to be sent to the same address.
COMMANDS
These e-mail messages are intended to cause some action to occur, such as
subscribing the FROM address to a mailing list. Commands are usually one or
two word phrases which should be entered in the SUBJECT field of the message.
Any other fields are ignored... it doesn't matter what you put in them.
The following commands are accepted:
subscribe
adds your e-mail address to the list of subscribers
you will then receive all posts
you are then allowed to post from that address
unsubscribe
removes your e-mail address from the list of subscribers
you will no longer receive any posts
you are no longer allowed to post
subscribe digest
switches you to digest mode
you will then receive one message per day which lists all posts
to switch back, send a "subscribe" command
digests
returns a list of digests for the past 30 days along with
instructions for retreiving them via e-mail
help
this message will be returned
POSTS
Email messages which don't match any commands are distributed to everyone on
the list.
Every time you post a message, hundreds of other people on the list receive a
copy, just as if you sent it to them personally. As a member of the list, you
will receive a copy of every message anyone else sends. On this list, only
members of the list can post to it.
To correspond directly with a person, send an email to Bob Johnson at
johnsonr(AT)sover.net or phone (802) 468-1294, Castleton State College,
Philosophy Program.

Subject: have any Pine Grosbeaks??
From: ejareck(AT)attglobal.net
Date: 2 Feb 2002 5:52pm
Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone has seen Pine Grosbeaks in the Chittenden
County area within the last day or two. A wildlife rehabilitator has one
that was sick and now is recovered and ready for release. Since they
like to be in flocks we would like to release this one in an area where
a flock exists.
Thank you for any help.
