As a beginner I would like to see all "basic" information that is on the
list. Of course if there is a FAQ that already clearly answers a
question then that fact should be posted to.
1)Perhaps I should subscribe to the full list, how do I go about
subscribing?
2)Is there a Bee-L FAQ?
 
Thanks for a great job! I like what I've seen so far....
