Summary: Volunteer.  Get him while he's crazy.

There has been an amazingly high number of requests for a moderator, yet the
volunteer responses have been low.  Well, I've considered it for quite some
time and haven't found anyone to talk me out of this fit of insanity.

To remedy this regrettable situation I will formally volunteer for this post.
I believe I have access to sufficient resources, as Stanford can be reached
by those lucky enough to be on the internet, and can also be reached within a
single step from many backbone sites.

Of course, if someone else wishes to take upon themselves this task, I'm
perfectly willing to oblige.  So, barring such, I would tentatively propose
that any discussion, pro or con, be sent to me (personally) and I will atempt
to carry on a rational discussion.  If there is no "significant" objection, I
would close discussion at the end of March and contact the appropriate admin
sites.

I would consider a significant objection to be one that provided a rational
argument that I would not be able to serve the needs of this newsgroup.  If
there is a dispute as to significance, I'm perfectly willing to post and open
it to discussion.

Please do not send to any other account(s).  That will help keep the
discussion "organized."
