If by "the AppleScript list" you mean Dartmouth's MacScript list - you're
right.  If you mean Apple's applescript-users list, you're wrong.

As for the rest of it, I tend to disagree with you.  I'm probably
subscribed to every list except macperl-all, but I still appreciate having
the distinction.  I like knowing htat if a message comes in from [MacPerl],
it's not likely to have cgi discussions.  From what I've seen, a good
percentage (and I'll take a cue from Vicki and make up a statistic - 50%)
of the cgi questions I've seen revolve around server configurations or
environment questions - none of which have anything to do with Perl or
MacPerl.  It's essentially coincidental that the people asking these
questions are using Perl - and a matter of good taste that they chose
MacPerl.
