test message, ignore

[Jonathan A Rees <JAR@AI.AI.MIT.EDU>]

I periodically send out a test message to the list, for two purposes:
(a) it verifies to new arrivals that they have been added, (b) it helps
weed out bad addresses, since copies sent to such bounce back to me.

There are about 200 entries on my list, many of which are redistribution
lists, so I'd estimate the readership to be about 400-600 (probably a
low estimate since I think it goes out to uucp netnews, and Allah knows
what happens to it then).
