As administrators, it's our policy not to take punitive action. We
only use moderation to prevent likely repeat offenders from further
disrupting the list.

Andrew Garrett (who, as others have noted, was actually defending
you—I understand that this isn't something you're used to, after all
these years) is not a troll and, while blunt, is generally not
disruptive.

Dan Rosenthal is not always the friendliest in his interactions with
the list, and has been moderated before, but I see no reason to do so
again at this time.

And that's all I intend to say in reply. You don't even get my
traditional folksy "guys, be nice" line for this one.

Austin
