I think it is a brilliant idea. A smart digest pre-processor that is. Let's call her VICTORIA...perhaps? So what you have in mind is that all the questions of the day would be summarized with and condensed with all the answers of the day. Or perhaps a group of questions that span 2 or 3 days. It would be a good project (for someone) to develop an automated process/script that does a lot of the pre-processing and then a human editor would give it the final edit before sending out. So either SELMA needs to get a lot smarter... or a human editor needs to do a lot of work compiling the digest every week. I heard that Larry Wall (author of PERL) originally wrote PERL to solve a problem with reporting and summarizing activities and sundry items on a news group. AND SINCE we KNOW that REBOL (even in its infancy) is smarter (less linquistically challenged) -- than PERL, so it could easily be done. Now it just needs a few volunteers to figure out how to parse and categorize all the daily mail....
