This is so very true.  Nonetheless, that people are being overwhelmed by
requests for documentation is no less true and the sheer volume of requests is
quite daunting.  I kind of like the idea of coding whether or not your recipe
is redacted from a period source; however, most redactions (or so it seems to
me) have the source supplied with it.

I only mentioned this because I have seen requests for documentation coming
hours apart (some even appear after I have seen the reply).  While most of
this is undoubtably due to the lag time of a message wending its way through
the 'net, some of this is people not reading up-to-date on a thread before
posting a question.  This is too easy to do with the volume of this list.
