   	That's certainly worth doing, and there's plenty of material   
   in the FAQ to be gnawed over for a while.

   	This is true.  The only mild catch is there's a clique on   
   Wikipedia which throws hissy fits over Usenet postings as a source, so   
   that it's necessary to have stuff on a web page before they'll believe   
   it exists.  Fortunately, the older versions of the FAQ have been on web   
   pages long enough to earn tenure.
