I think that it is better not to moderate this group.
Disregarding obvious spams is easier than dealing with
dictatorial idiots that control the content of groups
instead of just weeding out spams or flames
(e.g. bionet.genome.autosequencing). Power, even the power
of a moderator, corrupts beyond imagination.
