If you create a new list and announce that it will be moderated to ensure professional conduct, isn't that already pre-judging the participants? I don't really know what is normal in the US; maybe people over there are more used to others having their thumbs on the "beep" button in case someone says something evil. But I, personally, feel offended by the idea that someone else feels the need to censor my words. (Censorship is, I believe, the correct term for what Serge calls "full moderation"; censorship does not imply that words are changed or removed, it just says that words will not get through without the censor hitting the "ok" button.)
