I would tend to agree with Tim's assessment that this list lacks moderation. LD is a very uncomfortable place to be for people just looking for informative and/or entertaining discussion. I suspect many people, like me, stay on and try to tune out or ignore the flare-ups - or unsubscribe. (I'm not talking about the "passionate yet informative" contributions, just the really senseless and irrelevant ones). I think it would be nice to have just a little bit of moderation.
