A well-moderated list can be a valuable forum for achieving consensus,<br>
rather than just a soapbox for every opinion to be voiced.<br>
<font color="#888888"></font><br></blockquote></div>But every opinions should have a place to voice themselves, shouldn't they?<br><br>If Talk becomes moderated/censured, where would that be? <br>Wouldn't it better to create specific, on-topic moderated lists (and moderate the existing ones) rather than moderating "Talk", whose topic is not obvious?<br>
<br>Then people who don't want the noise can just turn it off, while leaving a place of "free speech", and topic-focused lists would be sane...<br><br>- Chris -<br>
