I agree; they are pretty insufferable. I set it up with them for two
reasons:
* They are the largest provider(I think) so more people would
see it that way.
* I don't have the resources to set a list up on my own.

As I said above, I do not have the resources to setup a list on my
own. If anyone has an alterative they would like to suggest, I would
be glad to hear it.
