No, you don't have the right, but you do have the privilege to make your
feelings known. If you want the name of my boss, write to me and I'll give
it to you.

If I was trying to change the net around to do what I thought was
relevant[sic] then I'd be doing a much different job than I was now. I've
made my views known in other recent postings, I won't waste disk space
mentioning them again.

>The techniques you are using are the traditional preludes to censorship, what
>do you want the SOVIET CHUQNET?

No. Please remember than I'm a net fascist, not a net communist. Please
don't get your political philosophies mixed up. For the record, I don't
want a Soviet Chuqnet (whatever that is). I just want a network that is
pleasant to be a part of. I'm not for censorship, I'm just against people
who think that freedom of speech implies a requirement to listen. The
privileges of interacting with a public forum such as netnews implies a
responsibility not to misuse that forum. Too many people, in my eyes, are
doing so, and they are jepardizing the continuing existence of the net by
giving those who would like to remove the entire net from their systems.
Every person on this network has a responsibility to it. I refuse to
support any long those people who will not hold up their end. My interest
is only to keep the network working properly for those who do.

>Have a happy day.

Thank you. I will.

The offices were very nice, and the clients were only raping the land, and
then, of course, there was the money...
