- Mostly a good cast of characters, but like a few other people, I'm not sure
- whether Dale Bass would be a good moderator. He shares the honor of being in my
- kill file with Abian, Sarfatti, Beckmann, van Flandern, and Hannu Poropudas.
- Dale is not a raving lunatic like the other five, but certainly was one of the
- major contributors to the noise problem in sci.physics. Besides, he's supposed
- to be finishing up his Ph.D. Will he really be able to devote even the small
- amount of time necessary for the moderation? I know I was much too busy to do
- anything else while I was finishing my Ph.D.
