I might be completely off base here, but would THE LEADER OF THE GROUP DECIDE? If been running into more than one situation lately where the leaders of tech groups are playing 'the wizard behind the curtain' with the public. The leader decides what is valid and what is not. If anyone says something akin to 'this is Society 2.0' they are going on the idiot list. I am absolutely fed up with this drippy anarcho sophistry that has taken center stage in technology politics in the past few years. -jmz __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
