So why not simply make a statement that you are not attempting to become a URCM moderator? Clearly a *lot* of people from all "sides" have made the "mistake" of thinking that you are, so why not quickly clarify? Unless....

My goodness, the hypocrisy is astounding. You continually support a newsgroup which has been set up with the undeniable purpose of suppressing particular opinions, then you whinge about people supposedly trying to do the same thing with your opinions when they're doing nothing of the kind!

It just gets worse and worse with you. Are you having some kind of breakdown because you haven't yet had that "red letter" email offering you that coveted place on the URCM moderation panel? Is it fair for you to take that out on UNNM posters?
