Nor can I, but I do have some thoughts about sites like nabble.com.  I'm 
not picking on them specifically, but on all sites that provide an 
"alternate" view of an email list.

One, when you go to the nabble site, it doesn't clearly say that the 
list is not RUN by nabble.com -- in fact, looking at the pages it makes 
every attempt to hide the fact that it isn't.  This in and of itself 
isn't bad, but it makes it appear that nabble.com is a great innovator 
and is sponsoring all these wonderful lists, when all they're doing is 
acting as a glorified usenet gateway.

IMHO, I would ask nabble to stop any lists I run for just that reason -- 
_I_ run them, not someone else.
