I don't think either the feminists mailing list or the Christian mailing list (both of which I'm on) would be the same if they were moderated groups. A limited audience of people you perceive of as friends is much easier to talk to. -- -Liz Allen Univ of Maryland, College Park MD Usenet: ...!seismo!umcp-cs!liz Arpanet: liz@maryland "This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all" -- 1 John 1:5
