[Courses] Reminder about archiving

Just sending this out because I'm worried that not everyone knows this,
and the current course contains personal stories.

All email to the courses list is *publicly archived*. That means anyone
at all can head on over to
http://mailman.linuxchix.org/pipermail/courses/ and check out the emails
sent to the list. Search engines will also find that info, and so
courses posts under your name may come up if anyone searches for you on
a search engine.

If you are not comfortable with this, the easiest thing to do probably
is post under a name that won't usually get searched for. (People in the
current course probably want to think about their spineful living goals
and how the choice between using their usual name or a pseudonym fits
in with that!)
