Well, I have  a list here with all  the users in the local  staff. I have
another list  with all  the "guest"  accounts on SEARN.  I don't  see any
reason  why  people  should  be  bothered by  these  lists  when  they're
searching the LISTS database for  things related to, say, guest operating
systems under  VM or guest researchers.  I also don't see  any reason why
they should KNOW about these lists and write junk messages to them :-)
