Glen, 

I was not trying to inhibit anyone.  I was trying to tease about the fact that 
no matter how interesting something is to one person, that same thing is likely 
to be a bore to someone else.  And therefore, there should be NO guidelines in 
friam, other than the politeness, kindness, and forbearance that have been 
shown me in abundance.

Well, private discussions are one thing.  But, I would very much appreciate 
some guidelines on what was [in]appropriate content for the mailing list.  It's 
probably obvious that I have no social skills and, hence, no ability to infer 
what's [in]appropriate.  Being relatively free with the thread collapse and 
delete buttons, I can end up pretty biased toward the things that interest me, 
which runs the risk of crossing the [in]appropriateness boundary.
