The e-mail problem is getting to you, heh?
Take a week off and go shoot some photos, Doug. We will survive the
problems that long. Many of us have said how much we appreciate your
maintaining this list. Ignore the complainers, even that graywolf fellow
and his endless complaints about censorship!
Ciao,

Okay, so what happens next is that everyone who doesn't live in America
will chime in how evil America is, and some people who do live in
America will jump in and agree, while some people who live in America
will insist it isn't so, and so what? and then Bob will wake up and
throw in some general xenophobia, and Bill Robb might insult someone,
and then someone will threaten to leave the list, and some lurker will
write me a nasty email saying he will stop sponging info from the
contributors if I don't get control, and then someone will suggest that
it would all be better if we all jumped to a
google/yahoo/smartgroups/webforum format, and some other people will
tell them to kiss off, and then it will go downhill from there.
So that's the next week on this thread, the Reader's Digest Condensed
version, without the profanity.
Can we just skip it now?

Well, I would prefer they screen immigrants and airport passengers. I
never
agreed to screening Americans' phone calls or email.
In other words, I have thought government reactions ever since 9/11
have been
excessive and really do not agree with them. I'd rather live with the
risk of
terror than lose civil liberties. I have always felt that way.
Just as I live daily with the risk of being killed on the highway.
Safety can be brought at too high a price. Especially since the
feeling of
safety tends to be an illusion anyway.
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

Ok - so define " eternal vigilance"
