Mailing List Etiquette

> 1. When I reply to a message on this list, should I be replying to both the
> user and the mailing list, or just the list?  I realize when I only want to
> reply to the user, but I'm talking about when I want my reply posted back to
> the list.

Some people energetically advocate not both.


> 3. What is the proper way to refer to the author we're here for?  I've been
> using "Mr. Brust", but I've seen "Steve" used quite a few times.  I don't
> know the man, so I'm not entirely comfortable assuming it's okay to refer to
> him by his first-name (in the third-person, even).  Has he previously
> expressed a preference?

Taste varies.  I may be the only "SKZB"er, but I recommend it as analogous
to YHWH.
