Some details on a moderated pianotech

[David Love]

I have to vote with Bill on this one.  We don't need more lists to manage. 
Those who think it's such a great idea should be the first to volunteer.  I
do think it is worth considering having the archives filter out OT posts
since they are generally of little benefit in terms of research and simply
take up space.  That way, those who prefer to read the list and are too
lazy or challenged to filter out the OT themselves, could simply read the
archives.
