OK, Wilson...then I guess you are voting YES too That's three yeses and 1 no so far :-) Linda Linda's Computer Stop http://personal-computer-tutor.com ABC Free Ezine ~ Free Ebooks and Tutorials *all outgoing mail scanned by Norton AV. If you got a bug that looks like it came from me, it did NOT! -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Wilson Baptista Junior Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2004 11:36 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Moderation...or Censorship? Hi Jim, and Linda, and All, I whole heartedly agree with Jim. It was interesting, to me, watching the various opinions (mostly well thought out) by people who use both programs. Two or three members complained, sure, but out of how many? IMHO, the problem isn't the end of the thread "per se", because in one or two days more, at most, the thread would have died a natural death, but I fear that Linda's decision will encourage members to think that just because one or two are bothered they will be able to expect measures like the one Linda took. And this will lead, as Jim says, to cutting down the openess and usefulness of the list Linda has worked so much, up to now, to mantain as one of the best MSO lists around.
