  22. There is not going to be moderation of sci.physics.  Nobody has
  23. suggested that.
  24.  
  25. What has been suggested is that a new newsgroup be created, and that
  26. this new newsgroup should be moderated.  People who prefer a more
  27. uninhibited discussion can continue to read sci.physics.
