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.
