I prefer private communications - those that remind others believe it
is a good thing - I believe they are very wrong.
(1) I have seldom seen a positive flow coming from these random public
information attempts.
(2) Furthermore, the chances of genuine education via this are at best
minimal - the signal/noise is of order 0.
(3) An occasional post by the the list moderators (every 6 months to a
year perhaps) with the subject clearly showing information about forum
guidelines would be far better.
So please keep it private - the bulk reading this list don't need
reminders.
