I have had no trouble with the current moderators.

My ratings as I see them of the three

1. Bruce, usually answers just about all my moderator emails I send, and does a
pretty good job so far.

2. Karinsdad, never seen him do much, but from a few posts I think also does his
job well, and does allot behind the scenes. Likes to stay in the background and
out of trouble.

3. Dann, Apart from am email today which I complainted about the new Sean
CM7000_GM person, has said very little in the forum that the other moderators, I
think need to take a bit of a more public stand on being a moderator, After
Fernando quit, for a few months I did not even know Dann was even a moderator.

All the I would have no problem vitong for again. To me Bruce seems best at
handling things, KD becomes emotional on occasions I think, but not a big
problem. And Dann is in awe of Bruce's power and Reputation, that he does not
come into the for more,
