I have noticed that many seem to have forgotten the basic list guidelines. Here
is some excerpts from the Welcome message. This is a support list so some off
topic posts will be appropriate but it is always nice if there is a paleo tie
in. Over quoting when replying is always a problem. We do have archives if
anyone needs to look up more.
