If I get to have a vote, I say put the policies on the site.  Every time 
I'm on a list and someone mentions netiquette there's this uproar of 
varying degrees because different people have different opinions, and 
some people just get irritated that anyone brought it up.  So the 
question is, are there any rules for this list?  If there are, they 
should be on the website.  If not, then I guess we could be more 
tolerant.  Personally, I don't mind what the preferences are.  
top-posting or bottom-posting, I can conform... but I just hope that all 
the lists I'm on have similar rules or I'll get confused.
