There are some hot button issues with which even *we* cant be trusted.
{8^D We did pretty well with the transparent society thing this
month, some minor name-calling but fairly harmless stuff: nazi, fascist,
downright evil, that sort of thing. Gave me a chance to practice my
downright evil laugh: Bwaaahahahaha, BWAAAhahahahah, etc.
Nowthen, in reference to a comment by Queene, I can imagine a
circumstance where it would be perfectly appropriate for someone
to ask that we keep subject lines clean. Suppose a young person
was using his or her parent's computer, and his or her parent had
major hangups about... things.
Asking for clean subject lines is not at all an attempt to sensor,
nor any kind of request for restriction on what we say *in the
messages we post*, its more a privacy thing. And we can all grok
the value of privacy, can we not? Has it been so long ago for us since
our own parents might get all investigatory, should suspicious
sounding messages show up in the inbox?
Inside the messages you can put any depraved smut you want.
I *like* depraved smut, yea, verily, I live for it! {8^D spike
p.s. Queene, did I miss your point entirely? If so, please disregard
this message. s
