It's interesting how this event melds with other discussions in this
group, particularly that of unsolicited advertising, which that message
was. What bothers me is not the posting of the message but the speed at
which it was deleted from systems I administer, without MY (nor my
partner's) action to delete it!!!
Censorship IS alive and (well?) on the Newsgroups!
