And the 16th don't on the list is... :-)

  Don't flag your question as "Urgent", even if it is for you

  That's your problem, not ours. Claiming urgency is very likely to be

  and selfish attempts to elicit immediate and special attention.

Eric's doc is circa 2001.  Surely that should be in the top 10!
