If you care at all about the creation of online community, the destruction of the commons, the history of the 'net, why spamming newsgroups is bad, you must read this. http://web.nwe.ufl.edu/~northrup/usenet.html http://www.satlug.org/~afcasta/usenet2.html And I'm not sure if my automatic htmlifier will choke on this, but the DejaNews URL is: http://x4.dejanews.com/getdoc....3093170.111084253&hitnum=14&AH=1

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
