I would agree.  And when the topic has anything to do with me, I think the
other two moderators will back me up here that I _always_ let them make any
moderation decisions without my input, because that seems reasonable.

But in the case of operator error, what can one do?  :)

We get accused of deleting something at least once every month.  Yet we don't
delete things without discussion so we _know_ nothing has disappeared.  And when
we look, there it is...

RTFM is a good suggestion for anyone thinking about suggesting that something
has been deleted.  If they didn't get any email, they can rest _assured_ that
nothing was deleted, as we _always_ send email to the poster.  And we have
stated this many times, but it seems to fall on a few deaf ears...
