What a chore! Where would these angels come from, with
the discernment to make such judgments (but nothing better
to do with all that time), the determination to actually wade
through **all** the posts, and the discipline to read them
carefully enough to give each of them a fair shake
(rather than a quick, impressionistic skim). Surely the
burden would take most of the pleasure out of subscribing
to the Extropians'.

Sounds like a full-time job (for pay) to me, rather
than "volunteer" work! ;->
