what i meant was,
 i don't think we should put comments under posts saying ' this may be 
removed' or 'i wish i could remove it cos its crap but i can't' 
which has been happening.
by all means say something is crap - but i don't see why we should be 
preemptive about it on the wire.

i think we should work solely via email list for making decisions on hiding 
posts

victor has quite a definate pattern actually - in subjects s/he posts, how 
he/she posts and names he/she uses to post under
becuase victor uses so many different names, you do have make decisions on 
the above factors.
