I was wondering if I should say something to the list about it: I'm trying to
set the example of what *I* would like to read by producing some of it:

Well-annotated *opinion* on (publically available) facts.

It takes time, and some evenings, I sink a lot of time into doing that. Yes,
often simply selecting a story is an editorial decision, but a summary or
context sentence can make something 10x more valuable

Consider Tim Byar's Web900 forward. It was a good selection. I attached a
derisive technical analysis to it,and then it was fit for remailing to the w3
team. I'd *love it* if stuff came in 'preopinionated' :-)

> PS. The short version of the below: you call a 900 number
> for a BASIC password to the site. The 900 call charges,
> less 20%, are sent to the webmaster 45 days after payment.

Anyway, all this huffing and puffing is by way of reminding y'all THIS IS NOT
A READ-ONLY LIST -- POST! In fact, maybe I should make policy that you have
to post once a month to stay on this list... :-)
