Don't join The Beer Carbohydrate Info List

by Roger Deschner

Everybody: Do not join "The Beer Carbohydrate Info List", if you can avoid it. The list managers are engaging in unethical Internet practices. In short, they are spammers. A week or so ago, I got unsolicited email from them asking if I wanted to join The Beer Carbohydrate Info List. They're actually trying to sell some book. It said that if I did not want to join, I should simply ignore the message, which I did. Now I got a new message thanking me for joining The Beer Carbohydrate Info List. So I made the mistake of clicking on "unsubscribe", and today I find that I am subscribed anew TWICE. I assume that if I unsubscribe each of those unsolicited subscriptions, I will find myself subscribed 4 times, and so on. The only way to deal with spam is to boycott the senders. Whatever you do, don't buy that book they're advertizing! Time for a beer.

by Al Boyce

One of El Presidente Rick Oftel's additions to the Minnesota Home Brewers Association is the Brew-A-Rama - where club members open up their brewery to the rest of the club so we can all see how different people brew. Out on the Yahoo Discussion Forum for the club there is now a database for the Brew-A-Rama, listing upcoming brew dates for club members. Surf to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mnbrewers/database?method=reportRows&tbl=4 or go to http://www.mnbrewers.com, then click on Discussion Forum and sign in. Once on the Yahoo page, click on Databases, then Brew-A-Rama. Add your own name and info if you're willing to share your brewery, or check the dates to see who's brewing and whose brewery is available for touring at any time. - Al
