As a new subscriber to the list, I've read w/ some interest the post(s) by Mr.
Woerner, and the various, numerous responses.  In many regards, I sort of thought
he wasn't being given a fair shake.  Your response seens gracious & gentlemanly.  I
commend you.

I do agree with the moral concept of Mr. Woerner.  And I understand how Freebsd.org
is simply posting a listing of known internet sites using the OS in a demanding
way.

I hope Mr. Woerner (and I, too) will not demand that freebsd cowtow to our moral
standards.  But being able to express oneself about a wholesome thing is a precious
and treasured thing, especially admirable when done in a courageous and gracious
way.

It's a shame in many ways to see what's happened to the Internet with the
aggressive commercialization of content & sites.  And we know the super highway is
full of potholes.  But it's still currently the greatest wonder of our modern era.
It's just too bad filfth mongers get to peddle their wares, too.  But that's one of
the costs of freedom.

Thanks for a so far helpful list.
