OK. Let me restate the problem.

I want guidelines for:

	1. Digesting an individual's postings.
	2. Placing an individual on moderation.
	3. Entirely blocking an individual from the mailing lists.

We should consider the cases of people who violate rules of discourse, people
who rave endlessly, and people who are either clueless or crazy.

	Thanks
