Actually, the way it works is that our list manager is just that, a manager. He's not a moderator who follows what's posted 24/7 since he's allowed to have a life, too.
If anyone thinks someone's post violated the list rules, then, like it says in reminder #1 below, forward the post to the list manager at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and let him know what you think the problem with it is. Hope this helps.
