This is a valid stratagy. I hope I didnt not leave you or any of the group or
readers with the idea that the beacon light idea had to be an either or.  In
fact, a  good builder would do his or her best to utilize as many of the
concepts as post to this NG.

Right, but why not demand a switched light as per the current rules, and then
it's up to you to do whatever you want in addition?

I think the "Talking Points" work well, and I think it is a way around the un
official rule that only you are allowed to use the precious square brackets in a
subject line.

The Square Brackets exist so people don't get confused with when the events are
scheduled.  There was a fantastic example of Dave using the brackets and Oliver
coming in about a day after asking "So I'm confused, when is the dinner?"

Square Brackets are used for official announcements like dinners, events and
photo archives.  Since most of the folks here couldn't organize themselves out
of a paper bag, these official announcements are needed.

These Talking Points might be useful if there was active debate, such that the
points separated them out for people to differentiate long threads.  Problem is,
there aren't any long threads.  I'm talking to all you goofballs who thought
this was a great contest but haven't said anything about it.

Frankly, I'm going to lock the rules if I don't see anything else on it.  Bricks
for the wall, light goes off.
