Yo! Ed! Got a question for ya! 

Janis Kracht -> Lee Lofaso pretended :

 >> Tell us why Tim Richardson is not allowed to send
 >> or receive messages from Ed Koon's BBS.

 JK> From what I heard, Tim bad-mouthed Ed Koon, but you'd probably have to ask
 JK> Ed the reason.

 JK> --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-2

Now here's da question -

What could Tim Richardson have possibly said or done
to have pissed off da Moderator of the Flame Echo known
as Matzdobre to the point of getting hisself banned not
only from da Moderator's BBS but also from Fidonet?

"If we don't believe in freedom of expression for
people we despise,we don't believe in it at all."
- Noam Chomsky

Censorship offends me.  Censorship should offend
us all.  But apparently it does not offend others.

Are you one of those "others"?

Janis Kracht says you are.

"Censorship feeds the dirty mind more than the
four-letter word itself." - Dick Cavett

Of course, Janis Kracht did not call it censorship.
She claims that Tim Richardson "bad-mouthed" Ed Koon.
Is that true?  Is she right?  Is it true that you
deny those (such as Tim) who access your system from
using the word "fuck" on your BBS?

"Take away the right to say `fuck' and you take
away the right to say `fuck the government.'"
- Lenny Bruce

I would never want to deny you or anybody else the
freedom to say "fuck" or "fuck you" on any BBS, even
if it were my own.  So now is your chance to tell me
what you think.  In your very own words.  Without
any fear of retribution.  At least not from me.  :)
