From: utzoo!dciem!odell Newsgroups: net.women Title: Re: the purpose of this newsgroup Article-I.D.: dciem.172 Posted: Tue Feb 15 16:46:59 1983 Received: Tue Feb 15 16:49:40 1983 I do not agree with the comments made by Steve Daniel. Yes this news group should support people. However, the topics of abortion, pornography etc are very important to many women and should be discussed. People *are* influenced by what they read and it is very necessary to speak out (or write) about these critical topics. This is net.women and discussions such as I have read so far should continue. patti
