What does Moderated sci.astro.amateur offer that is not already
available elesewhere?


1. No ads.

2. A smaller community drawn from people at the usenet s.a.a. who are
tired of being insulted.

3. The ability to post your own images and videos directly.

4. A few other things come to mind but obviously no one cares.


Now to get to the point. Why did YOU, Martin Nicholson, join Moderated
sci.astro.amateur a few weeks back and post to the forum? There must have
been reasons.
