I have a solution. Post a fully updated and constantly reviewed FAQ to a website to a stable URL. Post the URL to FAQ part 00. Reference to widely commonly available info being okay. Nobody has ONLY usenet access anymore. It costs to access it now thanks to common ISP's deprecating it. Adjust to reality given your unique access to being maintainer for rec.models.rockets FAQ 00 and 03 and many others. Same thing, replace the text with web URL's.

You could have done it all along, but only realized it now, all these many years later . . .
BFF (Buying Frenzy Fad) was a good idea then, I implemented it with great success, and it is a better idea now that the internet has killed brick and mortar. BFF YORF and spam TRF and ROL with it too. Maybe even TRA and NAR lists!
I nominate Featherweight as my first BFF for 2014. [some bitch renamed it best friends forever]
Just Jerry
