Undoubtedly not :-( ... but it's unlikely that a routine posting would
help to dispel cluelessness, either.  More likely it'd just waste space
in the archives.

At one time Marc was arranging for the list bot to append automatic
tags to all postings.  I'd be in favor of an automatic tag that read
something like

        list administrivia: majordomo@hub.org
        Postgres FAQs: http://...

Suggestions anyone?  (Keep in mind that brevity is the soul of wit
here...)
