1) I'm aware of the duplicate message problem. I don't see anything
obvious causing it right now, so I'm going to ignore it until I restart
the lists.

2) Re: Resetting the lists. Here's how it's going to work.

1. I send out a message saying that the lists are getting
reset.
2. Wait 30 minutes.
3. Completely remove the lists from the server.
4. Re-create the list.

At this point, everything will be back online and ready to roll
with the new list. I don't intend to put the lists on hold or
anything of that nature, so once you've subscribed, assume that
the list is 'live'. I suspect that the lists will be available
approximately 1 hour after I send the message saying that I am
beginning the reset. In practice it will only take me a couple
of minutes to do it, but I want to give the mail a chance to
propagate.

Hopefully that will clear things up a little bit.
