[bksvol-discuss] Re: OT web braille

Hi Julie,
    No, you don't have to be a list monitor to offer help. However, in an 
attempt to cut down on list traffic, I often try and keep the following 
guidelines in mind.

1. Always read all posts before replying. If you are merely duplicating what 
someone else has said, you are (a) wasting your time writing the message, (b) 
cluttering the list with unnecessary posts--giving everyone else extra mail, 
(c) making the archives fuller and harder to use, and (d) using unnecessary 
bandwidth.

2. If I'm not confident in my answer or think that someone else might be better 
suited to answer the question, I will wait a while. If no one else steps up to 
the plate then I'll go ahead and respond.

And this is directed to everyone...
please please, read all of the mail for this list before responding. We don't 
need 5 people answering a single question where one person's answer would 
suffice. Keeping the list traffic from including unnecessary posts means more 
time for all and more time to volunteer. (Note, I am in no way suggesting that 
this list should be limited, or that someone should feel bad about posting 
questions--just duplications).

  No, Sue. I was just trying to help but hadn't been on since early yesterday, 
so some of them I just hadn't seen yet. I didn't know we had to be the list 
monitor to try to help.

    Hi, Jill. After downloading the first volume, going back a page in your 
Internet browser should take you back to the book list again where you can 
choose the next volume. You'll have to accept that annoying agreement for every 
volume, unfortunately, but that works for me. Take care.

      After I accept the agreement and download the first volume of a book, I 
get the agreement again and no matter what I do, I don't seem to be able to get 
past it. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong or where I can find helpful 
information?
