Oh. You are using one of those new fangled smart phones to read your email. Too bad it isn't smart enough to know not to beep when an SOC message arrives. Perhaps you could set up a different email account that you only check once per day. Then change your SOC mailing list address to that account.

Changing your SOC membership information
You can change the address that you are subscribed to the mailing list with by entering the new address in the fields below. Note that a confirmation email will be sent to the new address, and the change must be confirmed before it is processed. 

I applaud your determination to stay connected with the SOC in all it's forms.
