<4.9> What are those funny things in brackets in the Subject lines of posts?



Some posts have subjects with letters in brackets, like

	[A]  Question on Flipplezorb's tree frogs
or	[I]  My iguana sleeps hanging by his tail!  Is this normal?

The letters are "subject tags", intended to indicate the general topic of the
post.  The generally recognized tags are as follows:

	[I] - iguanas
	[L] - other lizards
	[S] - snakes
	[T] - turtles/tortoises
	[A] - amphibians
	[V] - venomous herps
	[M] - miscellaneous

You're encouraged to use them, as they help readers with specific
interests to organize the contents of the group and read only the posts on
subjects they're interested in.
