| ... Being on this list for more years than I care to remember I
|can say that what is often embedded in an answer to technical questions is
|also a very sincere attempt to educate and assist with non-technical
|aspects of List Ownership if they are perceived as relevant to the
|question.

Absolutely: it is both an opportunity to question the need as well as
understand the diversity of list-owner requirements.

List-ownership is both art and science.  Asking a "science" question will
often segue into the "art."
