Indeed, I do delete such messages, which (thankfully) are few and far 
between.  This does not, of course, prevent the undesired messages 
from being sent to list members who are set up to receive messages by 
email.

The moderator is not willing to do a little more work, as he often 
goes a week or two between opportunities to check the list.

However, if someone else (who has time to check the list and make the 
approvals daily) wishes to volunteer for this duty, I will happily 
add said volunteer as a moderator of this list.  Contact me privately 
via jdroscha at att dot net.

Cheers,
