Here, here!! I agree completely with Steve on this matter. I would never
have wanted the group were it moderated. It is completely inaccurate to
say that this change would have no effect on the group. If someone wants
the content of the group to go off onto BITNET, let someone take on the
job of creating digests of the content and then sending that on. I do
not know exactly how this works, but since wizards and other groups end 
up as digests without being moderated I am sure it can be done.

Moderation? Just say NO!

Sorry I couldn't resist :-}!
