My biggest complaint with web forums is the volume of spam that seems to 
get through, no matter how hard you work against it.  I don't think that 
is something Connie, Troy, and company want eating up their time.  The 
mailing list is indexed and searchable on the website already.  I'm not 
trying to dissuade, just putting an alternate perspective on it.
