If they don't, they're probably in one.

This is still (for some definition of still) a technical list, mainly
composed of network engineers (you know, the people who don't buy clothes
because their entire wardrobe is paid for by vendors, and who have a
statistically high chance of being fat, bald, bearded, and/or spotted at a
NANOG bar), and other people involved in "operating the internet".

As such, the posters are expected to have a certain level of common sense,
for example:
  * Knowing what procmail is and how to use it
  * Not posting in HTML
  * Not posting "where can I get a T1 in BF Egypt"
  * Not posting "everyone on the internet is down but me!"
etc.

Not to be mean to anyone, but if you're expecting something else, you 
should probably look at one of the isp-* lists.
