-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- In these days with much abdication of individual responsibility to various agencies, it seems to me that we should not encourage any entity to take care of poor old us and filter *anyone*, when we can do it as individuals. Any new members who are discouraged by the rants and raves of LD or any other messenger of boredom will learn to use the delete key or killfile. If they can't hack LD for a couple of days (till they figure out his rap), then there is not much to be done for them. I think we should give most newcomers the chance (as well as the credit for having a brain) to figure out the value of list conversation on their own, warts and all. Funny thing about warts, get rid of one and, alot of times, another crops up. Scott G. Morham !The First, Vaccinia@uncvx1.oit.unc.edu !
