While I agree with asking people tp try tp kep the postings on topic and
the subject lines appropriate to the content, I don't agree with what
amounts to censorship! AOL is known for this.(with their so-called
guides and reading of peoples e-mail and lists of "bad words" etc., Last
I heard, freedom of speech was still available in USA and Canada. The
Iris List is an unmoderated forum at last note. It basically moderates
itself. Basically if you don't want to be bothered reading a posting
just delete it! Exercise the delete key...
