Read that again: freedom is indivisible.
Indeed that's true, but the question we are debating is whether we, as a
group, wish to extend that freedom to members from whom excessively
frequent postings seem to indicate a very different and divergent point
of view of the world from that which the mainstream CLUG community
members normally see things.
I am glad you have made the expulsion aim public, Chris. Because when
you made the suggestion privately, that I should be voluntarily
departing the list, I couldn't see that you had any grounds for
postulating it. Same again so far.

Nor is it free if the mailing list is moderated (I draw no distinction between

Could someone please supply the dates of commencement for
a) this list, &
b) 'CLUG' meetings ?
I understand that both Carl and Volker can be contacted for access to
some email archives pre-Y2000. I should like to edit these facts into
the CLUG wiki.
cheers
