"Subscribe" mails leaking through?

How did either of these get through?  Did somebody turn off the filter
for them?  Even with that, surely *all* mail to -announce ought to be
moderated?

I was wondering about that myself re -announce, and I figured that 
the "subscribe" filter doesn't really matter anyway, as everything is 
moderated. So it's simply a matter of somebody approving something 
they should not have. For the record, it wasn't me this time. :)

Lucky for you.  We're planning to tar-and-feather the guilty party
when we find them.

Sigh, you are knew here aren't you? tar-and-feather is reserved for a
much different offense. This is more of a, "speakers dinner and being
left with the check offense"
