Re: [TCML] TCML Moderation
That`s new, and for a good reason.
Who`s moderating this list these days anyway?
Terry`s hinted about several moderators, but I don`t recall seing a list 
or a presentation of moderators since he left.
Cheers, Finn Hammer

Hi TCML Moderators,
I have a concern with a moderation. I'm aware of a rejected post and I 
don't understand why it was rejected. I've been aware of it for almost 
a month now but it's been a sore itch. I understand "coiling related" 
issues is first and foremost. But sometimes, coilers are involved in 
things which are related due to their coiling experiences, and 
sometimes are not directly related to a "Tesla Coil". For example, if 
a coiler on this list has spent a life time building Tesla coils and 
through his coiling experience became knowledgeable enough to be 
invited on the "History Channel" as an expert to show how charge can 
accumulate on a surface and cause a high static voltage", then due to 
his time coiling, I would certainly give the benefit of the doubt. Too 
many times others in the spot light have posted their appearances 
without being rejected (why not this one?).
I personally would love to hear of fellow coilers doing things like 
that. Now, if they are showing that they have become the next "robot 
wars wizard", well, then I understand that it's off base. But if it is 
related to sparks some how, accumulation of charge, lightning made by 
man or otherwise, then yes! It's simply a "take a look at this" type 
of post and not some pseudo-science uneducated brain with too much 
time on their hands who haven't figured out why perpetual motion is 
impossible.
To be fair, the post I speak of is Bill Beaty's appearance within the 
special about the "Black Blizzard". This was a very informative show 
with lot's of lightning and the affects of static electricity which 
many suffered during that time. It was nice to see Bill (a colleague 
to the TCML) attempt to recreate and measure the affects of debris and 
friction causing static electricity.
I just don't understand why something like this would have been 
rejected (since it's a major media event for a coiler sort of related 
to the lightning we recreate in our coils)?
Regards,
Bart
