Couldn't you just export the lists to an ascii file and run a sed on it to remove the joker's identity from
the list then re-import it? Something like:
sed -e s/joker's identity/some twit/ lists.ascii > newlists.ascii
I think it would be a good idea at this time for us all to have to re-subscibe to the lists agreeing not to
hold Nigel or anyone else liable for anything.
Good God, can't we just all place nice in this sandbox?
