people wouldnt use an FAQ, when you see three people ask the exact same question on
one single day, you know they dont read the other post, or care. if they wont read the
posts on the same day they wont read an FAQ, they keep posting.

I'd just like to offset my other email by saying that a faq is often no
substitute for the knowledge and experience of this list's members. In a
strange way, the 'dumb' question this list gets proves the a faq can not be
expected to know the right way to answer a query. A list member out there
just might know _exactly_ what you need to solve your problem.

I once thought a great product for mail lists (would require an admin
interface, PHP?) would be a way to put into the list mail signature a random
FAQ link.
Fill that particular FAQ with commonly asked questions and have the FAQ sent
out each month to all subscribers. A decent threaded mail reader would make
this reasonably easy (notice I did not say *simple*) to administer.
