   I'm not sure that moderating the news group is the easiest solution - wow,   
   what would we do without all that fuzzy porn? - and a mailing list might be   
   an easier way to go. With a mailing list you can exclude spammers, with a   
   moderated newsgroup you have to delete all their posts. However, while there   
   do exist some fuzzy mailing lists, they do not seem to have caught on, and   
   perhaps part of the problem is that it is easy for a first-timer to post to   
   a newsgroup but a bit harder to have to sign up for a list first.   
      
   I also feel that fuzzy logic has progressed to the point where more   
   specialised groups wuld be appropriate, but this does not seem to be   
   happening. For example, I am interested in applications of fuzzy logic to   
   ecology and environmental science, but attempts to get lists started in   
   these areas have not gone very far. One factor may be that it is easy to   
   search for newsgroups, harder to find mailing lists.
