Gang,
I'd like to add a couple of remarks to my statements
from yesterday.
Part 1:
* If it is about technical communication and of general
interest, post it.
* If it is about technical communication and humorous,
post it.
Part 2:
* If it doesn't relate to technical communication,
don't post it.
* If it is a personal message to a single subscriber,
don't post it. Even if mail to that person bounces.
* If you aren't sure, don't post it.
* If it relates to language use but not technical
communication, it probably isn't appropriate.
* If it continues an irrelevant thread in any way
(rebuttal, rebuke, rerun, revision, remark), don't
post it.
Part 3:
* Direct all commentary about this message to my
address, not the list.
Thank you.
Eric
