And I appreciate this.
Me too. Well said. Despite my occasional disagreement with Nick about moderating what or how people say things, I don't disagree with Nick here because this is entirely different. This is a *LEGAL* matter, i.e., something that can have real life repercussions. Like Dan has better explained elsewhere, I think it is best to keep the list as free of real-life consequences as possible. However, I still think the best way to handle this is for as many people as possible to state that they have adopted a policy of not replying to messages with legal notices. -- "Erik Reuter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
