Allow discussion in lugnet.lego.* between AFOLs and TLC employees (both

could always post elsewhere.  Here's the rule table.

If you do this, please create a newsgroup (lugnet.lego.direct.talk
perhaps) where such AFOL-AFOL messages are encouraged to be sent.

Hmm, I'm not following you.  For what purpose?  I mean, how is that better
than what we have already with regular discussion groups outside of the
lego.direct area?  The idea is to keep the noise levels down so that LD
doesn't have so much to slog through that isn't directed at it.

Basically, the lego.direct group is for communication directly with
LD.  But when a discussion thread springs from one of the messages
there, it would be good to have a "default" place for FUT.  Perhaps if
you are planning on adding a filter to check the References and
Subject lines anyway, you could automatically redirect such followups
there.
