I don't object to Sean, I just want to know why.  I earlier posted 
a request as to the reasoning behind having a moderator at all.
I received a response citing .wizards as an instance of a group 
that went out of control.  But I note that the other std groups 
aren't moderated (e.g. international, c, mumps) and that they have 
not gone berzerk.
