 In the past, before you had the ability to moderate posts, we had not
 allowed the contributor function.  Now, that it is there we would like to
 use the contributor post function that is moderated, but also moderate any
 comments that they issue.  We are very cautions about something
 inappropriate being entered.  They can be a good poster and then exploit
 the hole and become a bad commentor.
 If there is anything you can do, please help.  If you don't want to modify
 the base product, then tell me what I could change in a php or js script
 to accomplish this. Thanks.
