Similarly tangentially related is Richard Hamming's talk "You and
Your Research" on "Why do so few scientists make significant
contributions and so many are forgotten in the long run?":
http://lispmeister.com/downloads/you-and-your-research.html
It could be interesting to implement a number of his observations on
the list. For instance I've considered dedicating MUD-Dev one day
per week to "What are the important problems/questions in the
field?" The idea is that on that day of the week only posts which
addressed that question would be moderated. A similar pattern could
work for "Great Thoughts Time" (!tm).
Writing as list host:
I kinda like the idea. Thoughts? Which day or days?
