    Steve Davies, all good candidates. There might be a number of others that
    might be sufficiently invested in the health of the list and concerned to do the
    job well to grow into a job they may not have a natural flair for. Say Lee
    Corbin? and perhaps me, but the workload scares me and its no fun doing any
    sort of policing work or umpiring. If you really wanted to experiment will what
    a bit of responsibility might do how about Ron, Mike and Sam ;-)

    Brett,
           A theory has been going around this list that the list is operated by
    a clique. To this date I have resisted the theory and denied its validity. I
    did this partially just because I didn't want to believe its truth.
           My personal belief was that a majority that closely shared the same
    political convictions was warring with anyone that attempted to maintain any
    position to the contrary.
           The distinction I was making was the one made by Gatto. Gatto states
    that a conspiracy is not necessary when a group with the same bias exists.
           I can live with a Gatto type situation but you have gone a long way to
    convince me I was wrong. If your suggestions were carried out I would be
    convinced that a politically biased group was formally in charge of the Extropian
    list. Of course this would no longer be an Extropian group should that come
    to pass.
    Ron h.
