[PyrNet-L] for those about to vacation

[lloyd townsend <townsend@imaginaryrecords.com>]

Here is the proper method to do just about everything on this list, from
the letter sent out when each of us successfully signed onto the list
(by the way, are the list owners still out there?  Shouldn't someone
already have dug this up for reposting?):

> WELCOME to the New PyrNet-L Internet Chat List!
> 
> We hope to provide a forum in which to discuss all aspects of life with
> our beloved Great Pyrenees.  This is an open forum, where we hope everyone
> will feel free to discuss topics that are important to us as Pyr lovers.
> 
> Since this list is open to everyone, we expect everyone to follow a few
> simple ground rules that center around mutual respect.
> 
> Most of these rules are easy if you use your common sense.
> 
> 1.  Be respectful.  Do not use all CAPS, as this is the net equivalent
>     of shouting at someone.  Do not attack or flame an individual.
>     For example, let's say that you wanted to disagree with John's
>     post which read "We need to start a new Pyr-Corgi cross breed."
>     An ACCEPTABLE response would be "I think starting a new Pyr-Corgi
>     cross breed  would be crazy." Whereas an UNACCEPTABLE response
>     would be "John is crazy for thinking that we should cross-breed Pyrs
>     and Corgis."

> 2.  No Spamming.  When quoting the list, be sure to include only the
>     portion you are responding to, and not the entire message or list (if
>     on digest).  No chain letters, forward's, no advertising, promoting,
>     or listing sale items  unless they are Pyr-specific merchandise.
>     No advertising the sale of animals.
> 
> 3.  When replying to the list, think about whether your post should be
>     private or should be sent to the list as a whole.  Also, keep in mind
>     that this list is strictly G-rated.  Our dogs have sensitive ears;
>     keep it clean.
> 
> 4.  Do not post other's private e-mail to the list without their
>     permission.  Do not post copyrighted material to the list without
>     the permission of the author.
> 
> 5.  If you have a question as to whether or not a particular topic is
>     appropriate for this forum, it probably isn't.  But if you really
>     need to know, please feel free to contact the maintainers of this
>     list by dropping them a note at pyrnet@gamerz.net.
