I was called away from my desk for an emergency meeting before I was able
to send the text below.  I am curious to see what the response of the list
to it will be. 

*****

I didn't realize that the list was quite such a private enclave, Chris.

I know Ian from a running group that we both belong to.  He is exactly who
he claims to be.  He told me over a beer on Sunday that his firm needed
someone who knows C++ and does English and Japanese.  I suggested to him
that he send a note to the TLUG list, because I thought it might be a
useful forum through which his firm and a programmer who has the talent
and the skills that they require might find one another. 

If you want this kind of thing pre-screened, then change the policy (and
find someone to do the screening).  If you want only members to send to
the list, then block non-members from posting to the list and save
yourself some time.

Is there something wrong with that chain of reasoning? 

G'day,
