How many times, and in how many different ways, do I have to remind people
that is is an _unmoderated_ list. If you want a moderated list, please see
the footer for instructions on subscribing to one.

Be prepared for a level of posting traffic that approaches 0.

The moey you donated supports the mechanics of the list, not its content.

The best way to keep what you might consider to be off-topic posting down
to a low level is to not respond to them, especially refraining from
responses saying how off-topic they are.

Mark C., list mechanic, not moderator (and not moderator of the moderated
list, either, but co-moderator & chief mechaninc of the Klarinet BBoard)
