MEMB/ADMIN: Brain Wave on Scrubbing

Hey!

I think I have the perfect compromise solution here.

I wonder if Paul can work some magic and make a perfect archive of FAQ
list messages the day before new members join us.  This archive could
be stored somewhere so that current FAQers who wish to have a complete
FAQ message record could have one at their disposal.  New members
would *not* have access -- they would only have the webview archives.
 History would be preserved for those who might wish someday to access
a message that was deleted from webview!

Then the webview archives here would be scrubbed along the lines I
described in my proposal, so those who favor scrubbing would be happy.
 Messages with derogatory references would be deleted, and we could
all be secure in the knowledge that a searchable archive exists should
we ever need it, with everything in the right order and everything.

We would repeat this process each time we bring in a wave of new members.

Does this work for everyone?  Should we ask Paul if this can be done
and then move on?

Cindy
