Donna,
I checked out the link you provided and what I found interesting was that
many of the links given on that page had familiar servers such as geocities
and concentric. I know freedom of speech protects such groups as the KKK,
and geocities and other servers, ISPs, make money from a KKK client as any
other client, but I guess that I wish that these site hosts and servers
would be more selective and conscious about how there home page is directly
linked to such sites. I know I am probably not making much sense, but I
guess if you came across a URL like www.geocities.com/~whitesupremacy/ and
you were familiar with geocities it would make you wonder for a moment.
