Steve and others,

I'll tell ya what.  Rather than trying to start a new FAQ, I'll add a new
section of the RHLUFAQ: Newbie Questions.

And for the dedicated FAQ writer, I'll even give you a login/password so
that you can add your FAQ's directly to the FAQ, which bypasses the need
for me to move it into the RHLUFAQ manually.  Instant gratification. :-)

Any takers?
