If David DiGiacomo doesn't want net.women.only on his own
machine, he doesn't have to accept it from his news feed
(assuming it is under his control). Likewise for those who
agree with him that net.women.only is "a waste of net
resources".
Still, we do have to thank him for his suggestion -- there's
been more traffic in net.women.only in the last few weeks
than there has been in months.
Long Live Net.women.only!

And if David is administrator for a backbone machine, it is ok with you that everyone getting their newsfeed from him can do without it also, right? How about if the name gets changed to net.rabid.feminists? (As opposed to net.feminists, a name which implies that men might be acceptable also?) I'm sure David D. wouldn't care about the group name, then. What's that? The name is offensive? But it's only so that women can have their own space without MEN interfering! -- "The weight of the world is love." -- Allan Ginsberg Rick Keir -- MicroComputer Information Center, MACC 1210 West Dayton St/U Wisconsin Madison/Mad WI 53706 {allegra, ihnp4, seismo}!uwvax!uwmacc!rick

I've approached rabidness on this issue occasionally, and have observed it in other members of my sex. -- --Dwight Ernest KA2CNN \ Usenet:...vax135!timeinc!dwight Time Inc.
