Ever heard of Sisyphus? -----Original Message----- From: "Darach Murphy" <[log in to unmask]> Sent: 16/12/2015 11:39 To: "[log in to unmask]" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Energy Experiments :: CFP Open Track, EASST/4S Conference 2016 Hi there. Can someone let me know how I can unsubscribe from Anthropology Matters email list. I can't do so though the 'Subscriber's corner' as per the bottom of Anthropology Matters emails because I never registered and have no password etc. Thanks in advance, Darach On 16 December 2015 at 09:45, Manuel Tironi <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > **Sorry for cross-postings**Energy experiments > EASST/4S Conference, August 31st to September 3rd 2016, Barcelona > Convenors > > Manuel Tironi (Instituto de Sociología, P.
