Why bother to have descriptions for just a couple of the tags?  Might as
well leave off the descriptions and point people to piclist.com for the full
details.

e.g.

"Please use one of the following subject tags, including the colon.
[PIC]: [SX]: [AVR]: [EE]: [OT]: [BUY]: [AD]: See http://www.piclist.com"

I thought OT stood for "Off Topic" anyway?
