Date: Wed, 01 Sep 1999 17:38:51 -0700 Message-ID: <12893.936232731@localhost> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Some people have tried to get this redirected to the -advocacy group. Don't do that. This is not really about advocacy, this is about a strong conflict of views and, as such, belongs nowhere BUT -chat. Chat is for everything and anything, including pseudo-advocacy arguments, discussions on whether the X Files is a documentary or fiction, the number of caffinated ferrets required to fix NFS, ANYTHING. It's a totally open charter and to object to a thread in -chat makes about as much sense as telling Brett Glass to shut up. It ain't gonna happen and it's not a good use of your time to get involved in such a debate. Chat is for, well, chat and that pretty much covers everything. If you don't like occasional noise, don't subscribe to this list. Nobody is forcing you to do so. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
