This is revisionist history. I can't recall any intimation at the
time that any messages were filtered from the unfiltered list.
Obviously I can't say whether _all_ the censored articles came out
on the unfiltered list. But I do know that I received at least one
message from Vulis with an unsubstantiated allegation [of a secret
backdoor, I think?] in Stronghold on the unfiltered list, as well as
some later complaints from Vulis that Sandy's filtering was unfair
and hypocritical. Unfortunately I didn't save the original message--
I just wrote it off as the typical Vulis spew.
