The idealist approach is that somehow, posters to the TechZone list will 
have the discipline to avoid of all the evils that prompted the creation of 
TechZone in the first place.

The realist approach is that it won't happen.  For proof, note that the TZ 
subject "Hello, is this thing on?" is now discussing how to split AES-3 
without distortion, using the same subject line (including some from the TZ 
moderator).  And this on Day One of the list.

There already is a "Tech-Assist" list running which seems by its title to be 
appropriate for tech-only posts.  I think that was its premise, anyway.

At this point there are five separate B-Net type lists running, and nobody 
seems to know which list is supposed to be used for which purpose.

YMMV,
