Lisa:
Your letters are a valuable resource. However, it seems that some folks aren't 
seeing them. How come? Kinda hard to find in a very busy list. Solution: Make 
them stand out. No need to shout, just fiddle with the Subject line: Readme: 
is good. Or use three asterisks. Five zeroes. Add [For Newbies] at the front 
of the subject line. In short, do whatever it takes to get attention (short 
of a magenta background, yellow type, little thingies moving around and 
background music). Those who may be offended know how to create filters.

Everyone else:
Don't even think about it.
