There is no easy method for people to learn netiquette, and the list concept
is not clearly understood by many. 

Hmmm, agreed.  If anyone ever read instructions it might help to have a
paragraph about it in the Welcome to the Quattro List response to
s*bscr*bing.  But people don't.  Hence the periodic requests to have
explained how to un-slushcrithe from accidental slushscrithers.  I just
reply to them with the original instructions that came with my fabulous new
toy.  Tolerating other people's learning curves is something that just comes
with the territory of an open ended social arrangement like this.

This list is definitely wiorth the email management chores it entails IMHO. 
Thanks Dan.
