I'd say this is good, and I'd certainly appreciate it for the next 6 mnth
or so to go with subscription info... 

I might suggest the wording here to be, "but with the publication of 
Mason & Dixion many of us hope to keep our reading experience uncluttered,
and so we ask for a use of the below "Spoiler Warning System."

Can we vote "nay" against this idea in the next day or two and otherwise
consider it agreed to (I am not trying to hurry a decision, of course,
just dont know any other way to poll the list)?

take care all,
