I probably sounded much more draconian than I actually intended. The
obvious design was to establish a rigidly moderated extropy-moderated@
as an additional list, and letting interested parties to subscribe to
that (perhaps plus piping a procmail- or manually-filtered extropians@
into it), while letting the original list either slowly die in a pool
of vomit, or go into remission by self-cleansing. Or something like
that.
