Please help!!
Time to add my two cents, my thoughts are this list needs to be moderated as the pollution of utter ignorance/laziness/repeat posters/please helps is way out of control (strictly IMHO).
So what about a moderated list

Your points are well taken. However, in defence of newsgroups, this is a
high-volume list that I think would be better handled as a newsgroup.
1) I think a lot of people aren't able to stay in the list continually

1) Google now has Usenet reading and posting. Anyone with port 80 and a
GUI browser can read / post to Usenet.
2) So, Gary, are you going to read the FAQ about creating a newsgroup and

Maybe I should, but Milt Epstein is correct in that it would be
presumptious of someone who is not a regular on this listserve to try to
make major changes to it.
I'll follow your advice about reading up on the process anyway. I've
gotten into the habit of checking newsgroups for answers

Actually this brings up an issue: What constitutes being a regular
on this list, and how
have links to FAQ, info on unsubscribing,
