Re: Uncivil rights
Personally, I enjoyed the antagonist, Cliff Davis. He was a breadth of
... well, maybe not fresh air ... more like foul air at times, but in a
politically correct world, that foul air was at times metaphorically
"fresh." But did he break the rules? Did he flame the list members?
Was he disruptive to the list? I think so.
There have been several pro and several con remarks over the past
several digests regarding dumping Cliff and freedom of speech. Was the
moderation of Cliff a "Big Brother" act or not? I don't think so.
Cliff was crying "FIRE" in a crowded theater (well, maybe Photo-3D is
not that crowded). I don't believe freedom of speech was violated in
silencing the FLAMING.
Truthfully, though, I think I will miss Cliff, right or wrong.
