One of the beauties of net-life is that there are lists to meet
all kinds of different tastes.   I avoid moderated lists because I
don't like them.  I often delete mail unread from the moderated
lists I do subscribe to because it arrives in spurts and because I
don't like having to wade through four or five messages I'm not
interested in to reach the last one in a bundle.  I much prefer a
steady flow of single messages, even though some of them are clutter.
