Here, here!  Brad sure has become proprietary with OTHER people's work.
The purpose of moderation is to keep the newsgroup focused, and, in the
case of r.h.f, limit the volume and set a minimum standard for postings.
Brad has NO ownership rights unless he copyrights the material, which
would be pretty funny since it's not his creation.

I supported Brad during the last recall drive.  I'm beginning to think
I made a mistake.  R.h.f needs a moderator, not some sort of propagation
Nazi.
