Periodic notices,


How do you propose to assure that periodic notices are posted? That
sounds like a job for the UNIX 'at' command.


Create a FAQ.

Post it periodically.

It only has persuasive value. Anyone can create a FAQ.

Right now the automated FAQ services seem to be in
disarray. If you've got a unix guru to put it on a cron, great.
If not, just post it by hand.

cheerleading,


You're referring to the readership politely informing the author, of
the offending political article sans 'POL' prepended in the Subject
header, of the convention of flagging political content in
rec.aviation.piloting?


I don't think scolding does much good. Thank the folks who
use it and disregard--even killfile--the rest.

and good example.


That can only be accomplished by the informed.


And the benevolent.

Many malevolent people are very well informed.
