Women who hit you with a list of things to do ("Clean up your room!...Mow The lawns!....Wash the dishes") instead of hitting you over the head with a hockey stick (Hockeymoms), or putting the boot in (soccer moms).

Mailing lists have list administrators, but, someone on thi list, appears to think the list is run by a bunch of women....

Listmoms is not a term that I would use for people running a mailing list...

Isn't this thread, dead yet?

Seems to start looking like a dead horse that people keep propping up, so that they can try to flog it off to someone ("It is not dead - it is just resting")...

Perhaps there was a typo and the word should have been "listmons" as in list monitors?
