My comment was made as an aside, not a moderation message. Besides, I only
have moderation authority over the Internet side of the gateway. Even here,
moderation messages are sent via private email rather than being publicly
posted.

Given the low traffic volume, any attempts at moderation will be
*extremely* light-handed and restricted to really serious abuses. If
people are talking, there remains a chance they'll talk about C programming.

Perhaps I should've appended a smiley face...
