Subject: Names in subject -- a suggestion as to topicality

When posting a message with a personal name in the subject, likely one of two
things is taking place.
1.  You have a question for a specific person.
2.  You have an argument with a specific person.
In either of these cases, a specific email addressed to that person would be
better.
I will freely admit that there *are* times when a post with someone's name is
topical.  But more often than not, it would be better handled via private email.
 Of course, something like this cannot really be made a hard and fast rule.  But
it seems that it may have some value as a suggestion.
