Actually, no.

There is a private joke list that I'm a member of, but that's a single
address, so even I don't know everyone on the list (I could find out if
I wanted I guess). I never send something out to an entire group or
book. I'm pretty discriminate about who I send things to, with the hope
that my correspondent will return the favour and only send me stuff
that they know I'll be interested in.

Just a philosophical comment.
