Add to that:
a. People not doing an ounce of R&D before posting.
b. People not taking the 2 seconds required to quote only the relevent
portions in the old post. (Nikhil -- you're a real asset to the list,
but pls, pls edit your posts. No offence meant.)
c. People posting their Pet Peeves on the list. ;-)
However, it's difficult to see what to do except to lose the friendly
tone of this list and instantly flame those who don't follow the
guidelines. But, frankly I'd rather get aggravated than see the list
flooded with flames.
