I started the exi-freedom@egroups.com list specifically to deal with this, and
I've repeatedly invited people in the past to move these discussions there so as
to not offend the tender ears of those who don't think this issue is important.
I will, once again, invite all who wish to participate to subscribe and post to
exi-freedom. Even Joe Dees can join, so long as he can actually post actual
facts....
