Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. We already get the censored stuff on the alleged-to-be "unedited" list, so by looking at the censored list only, we can do the subtraction more reliably than Sandfort. Just the censored list is needed, not the cut-out stuff, as far as I know.
I disagree. Or I don't quite understand what you are saying. I want to see the moderated list and I want to see what was removed. So since I was automatically given the Moderated List, I just put in a subscription, under a different address, so I can easily see what was removed. Of the three lists that now exist: unedited, edited, and removed posts, I would chose to remove the unedited version so that I can keep my eye on what the moderators decide I should not see. That gives me an insight into what they think.
Ross, I agree in principle, but not in fact. If the "removed" list was accurate, I'd say yes, but not only is it suspect, Sandy admitted personally that some items could "fall thru the cracks" and not make it to either the edited or removed list. The only way to guarantee the removed list is to subtract the censored list from the uncensored list, and hope that the uncensored list is complete.
