I'd like try to formalize a procedure that's been more or less informally
in place for some time and I'm asking for volunteers who'd like to help.
Here's the deal:
 
Every now and then I get a post or two which I don't feel is appropriate
for the FML and I send it back explaining why.  I reject things because I
feel they violate some of the FML's guidelines -- because they seem to be
a personal attack, for example, or perhaps because they appear to be too
commercial.
 
Often it's a close call, however.  I've let things through which probably
would have been best to hold back and I've rejected posts which perhaps
were OK to let through.
 
What I'd like is to have a few experienced subscribers to whom I can forward
questionable posts for their opinions.  Ideally these people would have no
"axe to grind" themselves and would also check email frequently enough to
be able to provide an opinion in a timely fashion.
 
If you're interested in helping out and have been subscribed to the FML for
at least 6 months please let me know.
 
Thanks,
Bill
