[Foundation-l] moderate this list

This isn't just a recent thing:

Posting a lot isn't necessarily a bad thing though, although in my own
experience, the less I talk the more people listen:

I went from a high of 154 posts in February 2005, last month I made
just 14. I'm still here, I still read most posts. In fact, I have made
at least one post to this list in every month since September 2004
with only one exception (July 2007) but I expect that people who have
been reading my posts from then until now would agree that I'm doing
more with less.
