Having just recently read some of Ayn Rand's work for the first time, I would
certainly be interested in seeing a newsgroup on objectivism. Without getting
into problems with particular people, I have to ask why is it desirable for
the group to be moderated?

BTW, the comment that Objectivism is not a philosophy leads to the interesting
question of what then IS a philosophy? By any definition I have heard, it
certainly qualifies.
