Certain prigs, who speak in terms like "NOW DON'T DO THIS but," seem to find something improper in the activities of this newsgroup. Improper indeed! As if many a man dated his ruin from some suicide that perhaps he thought little of at the time. One wonders why these dilettantes contribute. What do they think this newsgroup is for? Not only are they in bad taste, but, so far from placing their point of virtue at Aristotle's golden mean between too much suicide and too little, they place it at the extreme, with practically no suicide form year to year. They, who affect morality, suppose themselves more moral than Aristotle, who wrote two books of Ethics! It is too much. This is a serious newsgroup comprising connoisseurs and serious students of suicide. If people cannot make serious contributions, they outght not to be in the newsgroup at all.
