Yes, *very* good point; several readings might be necessary for
some.  Along those lines, I think I'll look into what it would take
for ezmlm to auto-reply subscribers (those making their first or
second post) with a message containing a URL to ESR's essay.  Maybe
they have to pass a quiz before they can post (now *that* should
go over real well.)  OTOH, maybe it would improve the signal/noise
ratio.

If I come up with anything, I'll post to the list.
