> The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the KR-List.
> You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules
therein.
> Failure to use the KR-List in the manner described below may result
> in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
>
>
> KR-List Policy Statement
>
> The purpose of the KR-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
> things related to this particular discussion group.  The List's goals
> are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
> high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
> among its members; and to support safe operation.  Reaching these goals
> requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
> the List.  To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
>
>
>  - Please keep all posts related to the List at some level.  Do not submit
>    posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
>    lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
>
>  - THINK carefully before you write.  Ask yourself if your post will be
>    relevant to everyone.  If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
>
>  - Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
>    that is growing in size at a extraordinary rate.  Try to be concise and
>    terse in your posts.  Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
>    responses.
>
>  - Keep your signature brief.  Please include your name, email address,
>    aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location.  A short line
>    about where you are in the building process is also nice.  Avoid
>    bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
>    space in the archive.
>
>  - DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
>    easily obtainable from other widely available sources.  Consult the
>    web page or FAQ first.
>
>  - If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
>    your response the same as that of the original post.  This makes it
>    easy to find threads in the archive.
>
>  - When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
>    response.  DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
>    reader to the topic at hand, but be selective.  The impact that
>    quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
>    can not be overstated!
>
>  - When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
>    then go ahead and reply to the List.  Be aware that clicking the
>    "reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
>    response to the original poster.  You might have to actively address
>    your response with the original poster's email address.
>
>  - DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
>    to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal.  "Way to go!", "I
>    agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
>    to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
>
>  - When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
>    comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
>    contribute something valuable.
>
>  - Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
>    polite and respectful.  Don't make snide comments, personally attack
>    other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
>    controversial issue.  This will only cause a pointless debate that
>    will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.
