Another suggestion, and one that is used in an antique computer list I am also on, is to break the whole group up into a 'talk' list and a 'tech' list. The tech list would be scrutinized closely while the talk list wouldn't. The group would soon get a sense of what's on-topic in the talk list and the tech list would have a very precise on-topic set of rules. Everyone would get the tech stuff but the talk part would only go to those who signed up separately. Might work well in the G3 list but this powerbook list seems fine as it is.

Unmoderated or otherwise monitored talk lists soon erupt into flame wars by nature.
