Perhaps I've missed something, I thought this was a reaction to Thunk, but
he only posts in a few threads.

I notice you both have email addresses from hosts I'm not familiar with,
perhaps they don't group posts into threads, so you get hit with about ten
times as many messages as I do. That would be frustrating.

I still don't personally support moderation, but if most of the list does,
then we should see what options we have.
