That is not much of a feat as alt.ALL is anarchy.  Anyone can create and 
delete a newsgroup there.

Then why have you implied that moderation in Usenet works differently than 
it actually does?

sci.physics.relativity is _not_ moderated; in sci.physics.ALL, only 
.foundations, .plasma, .research, and .strings are moderated.  Whoever told 
you differently has lied to you.
