I'm certainly not a moderator for Cypherpunks and I grant that the chafe of
the CP site is high for the amount of wheat. I've only subscribed for a
couple years and chose to rarely get drawn into the line of fire. I will
say, in its defense, that there is significant crypto discussion, in bursts
perhaps, but still there. When it's good it's very good, and when it's
not, it's . . . well, you know. I grant you it takes more time than I am
usually willing to give to sort through it for the kernels. However, after
a while you get the hang of who has something of import to say and can
oftentimes start a more direct dialog.
