Guest guest Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 hi wry and all, just to clear things up...this list is not unmoderated. it is moderated very liberally, whatever that means. in the past i have warned and removed some members who spammed or tried to dominate the list with distruptive behaviour. also a note to the new members: if your messages appear late, that's becuase " posts from new members require approval " not due to ideological censorship but to prevent the porn spammers from joining with innocent sounding names and flooding the list with robotic porn messages. robotic porn, now that's a strange idea! hur Nisargadatta , " wry " <wry1111@e...> wrote: > Hi.
