I get people telling me I say dumb things all day.

This reminds me of a similar issue I had when I was the owner of a music magazine ... we had a newsletter as well, and it was sending over and over and so we figured out the problem and were like "Uh .... we have to explain what happened, but do we really want to send another email to explain why they got so many emails?" It was an interesting dilemma. We just posted a notice on the site and didn't see too much decrease in subscriptions, in the end. Going forward, we had to test on 30-40 dummy emails we made on a separate letter.
Sorry about the emails, everyone. The system says it is NOT sending them and so we retried several times, alas it appears to be sending to some of you, every time, and others (like me) not at all.
The hosting service is testing and that's probably sending more stuff out. I'll see what I can do to cut that off.
