Communication Listserv Fails To Accomplish The Only Purpose Of Its Major

Using modern technology is often confusing and sometimes embarrassing, which is why UTB conducts all its communications through elaborate smoke signaling. Unfortunately, not everyone is an early adopter, which led to this recent cringeworthy moment on the Communication listserv. Aside from the irony of this happening on the Communication listserv, this fiasco broke new grounds in email embarrassment. 

A higher-up decided to scold the person who initially sent out the email, but accidentally did so via the WHOLE listserv, saying "don’t do anything now, but when there is a confusing presentation, you need to sort it out before they start reading". After realizing the mistake, the higher-up tried to recall the email, by again emailing the whole listserv with a line of hashtags (???) in an attempt to void the message. Unfortunately,  ####################### cannot solve this disaster.
