If Joe is sufficiently neophyte in the ways of an OBW32x, he may not
post anything at all for quite a long time, or perhaps only questions.

   But I do not see any analagous way I can profit from the IN MODERATION
   network, who (apparently) plan to take from USENET and give nothing
   back.

Um - that last clause is news to me.  I had been expecting that the
recipients, who will be getting a noise-dampened newsfeed, would be
more motivated to participate when faced with such a feed.
Presumably, they will feed back through IMN, yes?  Geoff, comment?
