My newsreader only downloads new headers automatically and leaves me to
flag for the next download the bodies of messages that I want to read, I
am therefore not in a position to comment on this assessment.

However, here is a suggestion:

Instead of making periodic postings of a referece to the sourdough FAQ (my
copy of the FAQ dates from the 1990s) how about having a periodic posting
that gives beginners/novices some clues on how to do a Google search on
past topics that scored entries in "rec.food.sourdough"?

There is often more recent info on the topics covered in the FAQs -

Ron's latest postings on "65 C bread" - which thows a new light on baking
breads that include a soaker - is an example.

By following up his reference to "Bruehstueck, I ended up at:

http://isernhaeger.de/picts/1130939397/AromaStueck.pdf

which had real information (on page 2) that can readily be adapted to my
current bread-bake routine. The ability to read German is a distinct
advantage.
