TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Well, there seem to be several factions forming here. You can put me in the faction that says a limit might be a good idea, but a strict 1-per-day limit might squelch as much valuable communication as garbage. I liked the idea of a larger limit per week.

Eric didn't suggest that...although the discussion is fascinating.
I'd be interested in hearing other opinions--on or off-list,
as appropriate--about the post limiting idea. No worries
about bandwidth per se....although better quality use
of bandwidth would be nice.
