Wilma,
?? I think it's natural to consider that what happens behind closed doors is 
suspect and bad.? But that's an assumption.
?? Luckily, the other list has not had much discussion on the hotel.? It would 
be annoying to have to sort through stacks of cross posted messages!? I can 
assure you that people on the other list are not sitting there whispering about 
people on this list.
??? I don't know why the change was made since it was not discussed there.? I 
suspect that the "evesdropping" by people on this list who don't like the other 
list but feel compelled to monitor it was getting annoying to someone.? But it 
doesn't much matter.? There are open lists and closed lists.? I belong to lists 
that not only vet members, but sanction them if they disclose posts to non 
members.? I belong to open lists.? Its not about fairness, but different 
approaches.
??? And most importantly, as you know, you are welcome to join the other list.? 
Join it, read it, get bored.? Just joking.? My point is that the you have the 
key to the door.? But judging by your criticism of those who joined the other 
list, that'd be hard to do.? But trust me, no one would hold it against you if 
you don't.

Paul

Actually,

If this is the case, I find this to be most revealing of all.  UC Neighbors
indeed.  

It is unfair, in my opinion, for their members to be able to access comments
on this listserv, (subscribed or not), but not the reverse.  I consider this
especially serious since UCNeighbors presents itself as a community listserv
alternative to THIS listserv where more civil discourse is the key.

The timing of this restriction also speaks volumes.

For those who ARE subscribed there, my opinion is this: I see little reason
to restrict access to conversations about coffee shops, new restaurants,
Curio Theater, Calvary Crossroads, house mice etc.

The discussion must be taking a decidedly different, less civil and perhaps
more belligerent turn where the UC Listserv is concerned for the archives to
suddenly be restricted.  I consider this so especially in light of the
results of February 13th Zoning meeting and the subsequent nature of posts
here on THIS listserv by some of their subscribers.

If I am mistaken about this, I am prepared to apologize to all concerned via
this listserv and say no more about it.  However, I would like to see for
myself if this is not the case.

As it stands now I am unable to do that and if I could, how would one know
if some of the more strident anti-UC listserv posts were filtered or removed
before one is allowed access.

I just tried to view the archives of kyle's list, and
arrived here:

   http://lists.asc.upenn.edu/mailman/private/ucneighbors/

   "ucneighbors Private Archives Authentication"


the archives of kyle's list are now private, apparently.
