   There is a big difference between a prepared political tract on an
issue and a personal statement of feelings. I think this issue might be
better addressed in an honest discussion of the implications, not through
a duel of press releases.

   LM_NET is an electronic community. Let us show respect for each other
by avioding impersonal bombast and junk e-mail, and by sharing our own
experiences, thoughts, hopes and dreams on the issues that concern us. I
don't care for censorship, but I enjoy spamming even less!
