Dear spiders, TRIMMING POSTS
Please remember to trim your postings when quoting a previous post! There were too many offenders in the last digest for me to write to you individually. It's the only rule that I am strict about, for the following reasons: 1. It cuts down the noise-to-content ratio tremendously (easier to read, easier to search, more valuable content remains) 2. It makes life easier for the digest subscribers so that they don't have to scroll through many screens of >>>> and material they've read before. ARCHIVE URL IN FOOTER Good idea. It requires a tweak to the majordomo config files. I'll try to do it when I have time. THANKS A big thanks to Jeri and the many other Arachneans who contribute their valuable time and priceless knowledge to this list!!! REPOSITORY It would be nice to have a repository of the best Arachne posts so that we're not suddenly left without them if our free archive service should disappear. I'll have to give it some thought. Maybe a simple blog would suffice. Unlike many on this list, I am still below retirement age! :-) That would also solve the problem of "Where do I find 'x' in the archives?" because the posts could have permanent links.
