Hello --

It's me again.  I don't have Neil's bunny slippers or tartan dressing
gown & hairnet.  Instead, you have pregnant (read: slightly grumpy)
Moderator to contend with.

VFAQs -- Very Frequently Asked Questions -- This file is available --
please read it.  I've noticed lots & lots of questions over the last few
weeks that get posted to the main group, even though the answer is very
clearly in the VFAQs.  Here's the link:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups/files/VFAQ.htm

The Acronym/Shorthand Guide for this group may also be helpful to you if
you've not read it yet:

SUBJECT HEADINGS -- A familiar refrain from me, but it bears repeating
over & over again apparently.  Make it your habit to look at the subject
heading (& revise accordingly) before you hit Send.  There's a thread
today that has a subject heading having to do with ear wax.  I finally
opened one of those messages out of curiosity late in the day and
discovered the message had nothing whatever to do with earwax any
longer.  I possibly missed some substantive messages.

DIGEST USERS (yes, this means *you*) -- Do not send messages with a
subject header that says "Re: Digest #___".  I'm sure I'm not the only
one who simply skips these as I have no clue what they will be about.  I
don't care how familiar I am with you or your wonderful insightful posts
-- if you use Re: Digest #___ as your subject heading, I'm not going to
read your message (this is no great loss other than I am slated to
maintain several FAQs .... so your insightful message about R/H won't
make it into the Romance FAQ if I miss it because it's buried under an
irrelevant subject heading).

NETIQUETTE & GROUP EXPECTATIONS -- If you haven't read it (or it's been
awhile), please do read the Netiquette File:

Thanks for your attention this evening! (I know, I know ... Neil in a
hairnet is much more fun than Penny the grouchy pregnant listmom ... )
