Agreed.  But some people, of course, the first thing they think of when 
they read something they don't like/agree with is "lock it down, control 
everything, and remove the offender!"

When you're talking about networks and crime scenes, yeah - that works.  
When you're talking about open mailing lists, it should only be used in 
extreme circumstances (moderated mailing lists are a different story)...

We're not there yet...  the delete key is still quite functional for 
weeding out the noise.
