True. If by files you mean electronic ones, that can be trouble enough at
times, but often we deal with recipes that are long, on paper, and in Middle
English, using non-standard characters. These things are invariably a bear to
type in. Sometimes I have time to type them, sometimes not. When I do, I'm more
than happy to do so. Sometimes, however, I don't, and I would much prefer this
to be  a matter of courtesy and choice than "a rule".

As for spoon teasing, I'm not quite sure what to say. Do people really think
this is an issue? _Really_? If I mention a Hungarian chocolate chestnut torte,
a whole lot of people are really gonna lose a night's sleep if I don't post the
recipe?

I think most on the list know me well enough to know I am by no means stingy
with recipes, but I'm a little concerned about this rule thing...the closest I
could get to that is putting in that FAQ something like, "If you refer to an
unfamiliar food, and are capable of posting a recipe, we'd really appreciate
it, since most of us are interested in all food-related topics."
