For those who may have misread Jim's post, he was talking about *another* mailing list, not this one, on the moderation method mentioned. No sign that this is in effect on nanog. -- No matter how much you want to try and spin it, MySpace is the Paris Hilton of the internet. (http://www.digg.com/users/ArcaneDevice)
