Good point.  You definitely need to mention the list name, as there are
more than one list at MIT;  probably even if there only was one list,
you'd need to specify it's name.  That's part of why I tend to give an
example, and the correct e-mail address is another so people don't post
commands to the list or to piclist-request.  (Always works to go look it
up at www.piclist.com, also.)  If problems, just bug me, I'll help
figure it out <G>

"Let me know which instructions are worded unclearly, I'll harass Mike
for you" <EG>  (He has been replacing some help files etc. with improved
versions, you could just talk to him directly.)  The whole reason for
help files is self-evident, might as well improve them if confusing to
anyone.
