Intersting answers on the off-topic stuff. I already see a clear dichotomy
on the responses. 

How we handle it depends on whether we see the list as topic-focussed or
community-focussed. Are others noticing that?

The easiest way to define what I mean is this:

Is the list "about the San Jose Sharks"? Or is the list "for San Jose Sharks
fans"? 

Maybe a simple difference, but semantically, quite important.

Hmm. I think there's a nugget of useful stuff in there, that might help
define lists in ways people can better know what they're getting into before
they subscribe.. Have to ponder that.
