No. (This is an old fallacious argument in favor of censure.) Most lists
are _not 'moderated.' These lists achieve their own *collectively inherent
and interesting vitality/direction.
I would second this. But there are second and third wave lists, that do
moderate, more or less satisfying.

A very interesting read . . . physicist Rupert Sheldrake (the guy who gave us
"morphic resonance"--one of my fave theories) asks the question:
Do physical constants fluctuate? Like maybe the speed of light IS NOT the
constant we thought it was.
I did not know that anyone imagined the course of nature to be
blandly uniform.

There is a list here, and by definition, the
owners and subscribers of this list
constitute a community of some kind.
The exact nature of that community is
arguably vague, but it's sophistry to suggest
that the listowners ought to start a private
mailing-list.

It is free. It's a collective, which is self-governing. People are free to say
what they like, but no one is free to silence others with insult and obscenity,

I know it tries peoples' patience when topics get ground up fine, but
eventually boredom instantiates creativity, or at least research, and
genuinely interesting things can happen as a result (see Forer, Kathy,

Subject: Dead animals
Story in today's NY Times on the growing use of dead animals by
artists--
http://www10.nytimes.com/library/arts/062400animal-art.html
A horse was brought to life when the European dadaists stuck a knife in a
dictionary in the word dada, which meant hobby-horse.
Let us not beat a dead horse. Let us bring a horse to life, eh? And let it be a
hobby-horse, and we can all ride it.
Smile. Fluxus is watching you.

The best lists I know are unmoderated. Sometimes, the "listowner" gives
comments, but nor very often.
And, btw, the best listowners I know are women.
