It is his view that since he is moderating the digest, he gets first crack at any submission which comes in. I suspect the only way to stop that would be to wrest the moderatorship away from him. Since over the three or four years I've been reading fa.poli-sci nobody seems to have bothered to try and do that I guess it isn't worthwhile. To be fair, JoSH is scrupulously fair in representing all sides of an issue in his digests if you can hack the editorial comments. Were he truly an autocrat, nothing but his own point of view would be reflected. -- Byron C. Howes ...!{decvax,akgua}!mcnc!ecsvax!bch
