     I'm not much of a poster, but for what it's worth, I give a shit.
I agree with most of your posts and find your sense of humour and
honesty a welcome change.  I didn't know that you were kicked off the
list and I likely would have stood by quietly if I'd found out.  I'm not
very aggressive.  Let's hope censorship  of all kinds (quiet and loud)
is on the rise, it can only be good for everyone.  I've always enjoyed
having my decisions made for me...frees up a great deal of time.
