I killfiled the thread, as I noted in two e-mails to the mailing list. The usual process for this involves flagging for moderation all topics with that subject line, and additionally any members I think likely to try to pursue the topic further, for a period of a week or so. Note again that "moderation" does not mean that you're prevented from posting to the list, only that we look at your posts before sending them on. Had you posted on another topic, your message would have been sent on within a few hours. > Also for the record, I emailed Austin Hair twice for an explanation of > the block, and his one terse reply indicates that he must be > overworked and in need of some relief. I explained my actions in the original thread, but as a courtesy I also replied privately to the only e-mail I received from you reiterating that the thread was killed. I never received a second e-mail. I am generally terse if not succinct, but I don't know what about this suggests that I'm "overworked." > Note also that anytime someone is blocked/moderated from a public or > open list, its a common-sense requirement that the list be given > notification of the block/moderation, along with an explanation of > why.

The only message from you that I held from posting was the one to that thread, and that went for everyone, not just you. And again, I did post in that thread giving notice.
