	I recommend that others state their view in a quick note also.  If
	many more oppose this use than like it, maybe this use will stop.

I recommend not. People are always joining the net and this
list in particular, so this would only be a temporary fix
at best, at the cost of even more junk mail. I suggest that
those who want to educate keep a polite form letter handy
which includes the news.answers posting "FAQ: How to find 
people's E-mail addresses," and send this privately to all
offenders.

The only other local solution I can see is to not let people 
post unless they are on the list, and not to add them until 
they have taken a quiz that tests their knowledge of the list 
introduction.

Maybe if sites required netiquette class before unleashing 
people on the net..
