1) Take a deep breath - council yourself that your *almost* an adult
now...

2) Browse to: 
  http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug

3) Login with the handy information that was just sent to you.
   - put your email in the very bottom field 
     (click Unsubscribe or edit options)
   - enter your password on the next page

4) Scroll down to option:
    Get password reminder email for this list?
    (choose "no")
    (click on "Submit My Changes")

5) Relax.

6) You may also change your mailing list password at this time - and
judging by your extreme over-reaction, I suggest you do so.
