"The Listowners have the right to remove someone who does not wish to comport themselves in a manner concordant with our civilization." But, since there's no definition of the meaning of "a manner concordant with our civilization" [heck, I can't even define what is _our_ civilization. Is it the USA? USA+Western Europe? 1st world?

All humans?] this rule is subject to the whims of the listowners - which have until now showed very restraint in using it. >Why do we have rules regarding the attatching of photos to emails? > Because it screws up the digest.

People have replied to his messages [even if he doesn't seem to read the replies]. Or maybe we should ban him because, in the past 2 or 3 weeks, he dared to mention Brin's books? Alberto Monteiro
