Allan,
My view is very simple. I am a lurker as would be described in previous
post, though that is due to the fact that I am not pre-disposed to writing,

intimidated. The effects

letting this conversation run its course.

towards a 'freedom from Johnsons.' If I

I'm not sure of the difference between member oriented and public archive. Would
this require registration/password or a membership fee?
How do we protect ourselves from all this anyways, unless you're going to totally
subvert your personality i.e. never say what you think, don't buy any books
I think it will be too naïve to think that something on internet could
