I've set up the list so that postings from non-subscribers have
to be approved by the list owner (me). This cuts down on a lot
of spam, about 2-3 completely unrelated marketing messages a day.

The downside is that if you send a message from a secondary
e-mail address, you will have to wait for me to approve it
which could be as much as 2 days if you send it late Friday
and I don't see it until Monday morning. Consequently I approved
the Talk.origins FAQ this morning and resent it before I
realized that Wade had already sent it again from his primary
address, and for this I apologize.
