Lines: 15 I like the suggestion of restricted input (which is what net.women.only was intended to be in the first place) but think that its been coupled to closely with the idea of mail only. There are moderated newsgroups now (net.announce is moderated, as is mod.ber). Maybe its time for the women of the net to be forerunners by starting the first moderated newsgroup for discussion (instead of announcement) purposes. Anyone interested in mod.women? This group would be readable by everyone, but the moderator would have to approve mesages for them to be posted to the newsgroup. -- Bruce Israel University of Maryland, Computer Science {rlgvax,seismo}!umcp-cs!israel (Usenet) israel.umcp-cs@CSNet-Relay (Arpanet)
