What problems would that be Alan? That the moderators are real people

Usually they disappear and never explain their absence or the gap in
posts passing through.

Which is why we have multiple moderators - we've already had a couple
of gaps in coverage by one moderator or another and you haven't even
noticed them. But this week and the next we have a rare confluence
where Greg is travelling on business and I am traveling on family
matters.
