The list tells us ``keep the technical content high''.  Why would it say
that if it wasn't intended for technical discussions?

This could be a bad idea.  As a human being, I have a moderately long
life-expectancy and eat lots of other things.  Given the times that I live
in, lots of non-degradable toxins have doubtless built up in me.  But, I
am nonetheless duly honored.
