Funny, I thought alt.sources was supposed to be _un_ moderated, and
was created by the people who thought that moderating mod.sources was
facist.

USENET is a slow-moving parody of itself.  Quiz question: how many
times has a non-moderated *.source* group been quazi-post-facto
moderated by someone canceling non-source postings?
