Mark, I was confused at first but then I realized you were talking about the censored upenn list. You are correct, the barking cheese list was founded on the principal of destroying community discussion. But we are unable to discuss messages posted there because the archives are secret. Before they closed the archives to outsiders most people thought it was a waste of time anyway. So no, we don't receive the mail to that list and I highly doubt that any posts from it warrant serious comment. Of course, it should be viewed as a tremendous embarrassment to both the Annenberg School of Communication and the University of Pennsylvania. It is not a public list like proclaimed and it is a monument to censorship and the destruction of community discussion. It makes a mockery of the guidelines for the use of electronic resources at Penn. It reinforces the belief that the University of Pennsylvania is a propaganda centered organization and not an institution that once caused universities to be held in high esteem. Some people theorized that the reason it was so boring was because of the intimidation against discussion at its founding. It looked like it was founded as a fan club for a local gun nut while a group of uncivil cyber bullies tried to outdo each other with good neighbor posts. Example: "Hey does anybody know which escort service gives the best rates? Thanks neighbors." Meanwhile the cyber bullies came back to this public univcity list with the intention of destroying our public discussions. I would continue to post any UCD stuff at that site because UCD is considered barking cheese too, but as you indicated if you have any intelligent comments or wish discussion use this public listserv.
