[GreenKeys] Permitted Posting.

Hi folks:

Yeah, I'm the greenkeys "moderator."  More of an admin-guy really.

You guys know I don't get too fussy about postings.  I don't mind even 
things that are off-topic, if they seem to have appeal to a good chunk of 
the group.  I think I have only asked the list to to quiet down on a couple 
of discussions, that either got too political or were selling things that 
were more ham-related than tty-related, and I only do that when I get 
complaints from list members.  Sheesh, I've stretched the limits of 
off-topic postings myself, and even been called on it by list members, in 
which case I have to moderate myself.  Some lists don't even tolerate 
for-sale stuff or notes about current ebay auctions -- I say, if there is a 
tty machine out there that needs a home, we all should hear about it, since 
we are really here to save these machines and save a bit of history.  And 
have some fun with them in the process.

Not that this is my list -- I just act on behalf of the members.  I take 
care of subscriptions and spam mostly.  I do very little moderation.  But 
then we have a great group of folks, and it's not really needed.  And it's 
not like the posting volume is enormous and needs filtering just to keep it 
manageable.

But Roy, something tty-related, even vaugly tty-related, well of course you 
can post it!  I'm really curious now.
