I didn't just remove someone's membership at a whim. I looked into it and found 
out that the original poster wasn't even a list member. He sent a question to 
the list a while ago, so I added him to the 'accepted senders' list at that 
time. Since he's not really a part of the community I made the decision to 
revoke his access privilege. If he will want to actually join the list in the 
future I won't object.
