I second the motion. I guess if moderation is not possible, then we'll have to
self police. An email that I post every now and then on this topic is below

<My canned email when the list gets too noisy>
I signed up on this list to discuss and watch discussion on J2EE
patterns. Lately, IMHO, at least 50% of all postings here are not related to
J2EE patterns. So, rather than b****ing and moaning and complaining, I am
offering all you off-topic posters some constructive alternatives! See below!
