What makes you believe Dan has a team? And what do you mean by "team"? My presumption is that there are a number of unpaid volunteers who have been delegated small pieces of the moderation effort, but that there are no employees except Dan. Am I wrong?

Personally, I'd feel better about the future of the site if I thought there was a strong moderation team making numerous decisions behind the scenes. Instead, I think most stays/goes content decisions are made by one vastly overworked Dan and by a bunch of flagging users who frequently have ulterior motives.
