I don't think people have read Wayne's message carefully enough: Ophee did not see his privileges suspended for exercising his right of expression, insults included. They were suspended because he was trying to curtail someone else's right of expression, by using tactics of personal intimidation and threats. I am not a lawyer, but this is an important detail, don't you think? My father is lives in a retirement home, and he told me last week that one of the pensioners was expulsed for precisely doing that: physically intimidating another pensioner. At age 80, this was the fourth time that person was kicked out of this kind of living environment for the same type of reason. Tragic as it may be, Ophee seems to suffer from delusional paranoia, and the lute list is not the right place to deal with this sort of problems. Alain
