    I got an email from some very nice Nigerian gentleman offering me the position of Superior Chief Uber Moderator of BAUT. All I have to do is send him a small advance fee to cover his costs .... I'm in!

    ... I'd give viagra, designer shoes, Nigerian princesses and government officials, a copy of my 20-volume work which conclusively proves that the Apollo landings were a hoax that Arp was right that the Grand Canyon was made by mega-lightning that Einstein was wrong that redshift is due to plasma (etc), and a can of spam, to every BAUT member. I'd also permaban both Phil Plait (the really, really bad astronomer) and Fraser. And reinstate all the previously permabanned members.

    I'd make a great BAUT Moderator because I'm good at making great babies, and I could make one for BAUT anytime. I probably already have.

    I'd make a really crappy BAUT moderator.
    I wish I knew all those years ago that simply joining this board and proclaiming myself to be rational would magically transform my uninformed opinions into science; it would have saved me a lot of time and effort.

    Spec sheets don't tell the whole story, though. I think what's needed here is an MSDS...and maybe even a list of side- and adverse effects.

    I guess moderators are acidic, since we react to caustic comments. I've also noticed that repeated, chronic exposure can lead to such symptoms as the inability to post on the forum.

    It's already too moderate. We need to put it in an Excessive Machine.

    I'm sorry, but those are qualifications for a modern major general, not a BAUT moderator.

    If you had some cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse, we might reconsider.

    That's because we're such a lucrative target, successful upper middle class posters with lots of disposable income.

    I'd make a great moderator because I'm full of Yankee rectitude and have a priggishly officious nature.
