G'day Paul,

Replying to a message of Paul Edwards to John Tserkezis on 26/04/97:

If they are interpreting things that way, then I would say yes. Interesting
concept isn't it. That gives the fidodogs the right to censor usenet (in
their minds anyway). I can just see the usenet users taking that lying down
that if they ever found out :-)
