At lot of energy has been expended (unnecessarily?) dealing with two interlocking list management issues:
 - how to get answers to questions from unsubscribed posters; and
- how to unsubscribe (for newbies who subscribed to get a question answered).

A little reflection on the size of the list and the wealth of talent wasted on these questions is enough to make one sick over the waste of time. Now Barbara Duprey has not only done an admirable and comprehensive job of trying to get to answers that quash this waste [cf: "Responding to unsubscribed posters"], but has also volunteered to take the quest for answers off-list. Also, Vera (VeLT) has offered a clue to at least part of the problem ["Re: Fw: unsubscribe"], and again Barbara followed up on the clue.

All of this begs an obvious question: When Barbara gets answers (for which the list will be in her debt) how will she get corrections made? Put another way: Who is/are the list moderator(s), and why is a list moderator not active in these list management questions? This may be a dumb question, asked from the perspective of one who has not been around this list for a long time - and if it's dumb, I apologize - but it seems like an obvious question. Anyone know?
