While posting this month's NewTLUG meeting announcement to the list, as it
happened, I was reminded of the dreaded "ohno second".
When I post the announcement, I include a list from my newtlug address
book of names and address of people who might not otherwise see the
announcement.
...the right way to do this is to use the Bcc: field, but, earlier today I
screwed up and used the Cc: field. I didn't realize this until the
message was already being sent. After a bit of a scramble, I did get pine
to stop sending, but I don't know how many messages did get delivered.
To those who's addresses were visible on messages that were sent I do
apologize, ...sorry.
The definition of an ohno second: the length of time between when you
press a key and realize that you shouldn't have.
