I would really prefer that it remains unmoderated. Moderation reduces the
interactivity of responses and I really like the increased interactivity
we have on netcom (much better than I ever had at bobsbox).

I feel this would be absolutely terrible! Many ideas are spwaned from the
responses of others, and to keep all those responses private kills that
potential. Quite frankly, as long as traffic here remains fairly noise
free (as it pretty much has), I prefer to leave it intact as it is. On
the other hand, I would not be ooposed to a newsgroup, provided it had an
email echo for those that don't have news access.
