This entire discussion presupposes that ubuntu-users is broken and must 
be fixed.  While there are certainly threads that go spiraling out of 
control, even the most verbal on those threads behave well by staying in 
the thread, making it easy to ignore.

If there are 5,000 subscribers,  (five THOUSAND?!?) is the list really 
broken?  I find it hard to belive that so many people would stay 
subscribed to a list that was all noise with no worthwhile signal.
