["harp-l-listadmin" <listadmin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This information provided to me by Tom Ellis, thanks Tom.  Originally a
word document with a split page layout I've done my best to render it
plain text while still retaining some of the formatting.  Unfotunately I
had to use spacing to line stuff up so it may be garbled depending on the
font you use to display this message.
