So what do you want from moderators? Editorial function?

Mary Anne — 12/29/2006 1:43:40 PM (archived)

That's not in my job description. If I were competent to act in an editorial capacity, I'd go work for World Book or Gale and make a lot of money.

You want to provoke me to answer you, and in fact to defend your ideas. That's not the same thing as thinking. I have thought. My thoughts have led me to ignore this whole thing. I find it tedious.
