What is that supposed to mean? You're disproving your own point.

You can't always get what you want...
YOU can't rid of Nimrod or set up your own list server.

...but if you try sometimes, you might find you get what you need.
But YOU did try. And if you were observant enough, you got what you need. We have list server network run by people who are capable enough to run it, and while it's not perfect, nothing is. That's all you need.
