When I first wrote my FAQ, another person on the group wrote a "counter"
to it... I wrote them and told them I'd like to include theirs along with
mine in the monthly reposting. Now, the "anti-" FAQ is a major part of
what I post (one of 13 parts!)..

I don't write all of them anymore, I'm just in charge of making sure they
all fit the newsgroup, and with posting them.

Now there's a question... is there a larger FAQ than the alt.devilbunnies
FAQs? Currently stands at 2 FAQs, 11 appendices, with plans for 4 more
appendices in the works...
