This is a MapHist list message (when you hit 'reply' you're replying to the whole list) o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o + o +
While there is still an exchange of information going on, and in this case I do find new information with most every posts, I do not believe that there should be any sort of censorship on the list. It is easy enough to skip messages that we have no desire to read, I certainly do on this list and others, but it is not easy to find information on subjects of interest, as I find the Vinland Map,when channels of information are arbitrarily shut off.
