   Since I control the moderator email accout, I can of course take over in   
   case Frank got run over by a bus or something, but I'd really like to   
   keep things the way they are as long as possible!   
      
   It is effectively impossible to change a newsgroup from moderated to   
   unmoderated, since far too many news servers will ignore those update   
   messages, (perhaps rightly?) suspecting that they are forgeries.
