It still exists on the dec20 (pure arpa connection), but hasn't made it to sally (combination usenet and arpa (and csnet and ...)) in quite some time. The last arpa posting is Volume 4, #4 dated November 24, 1985. I suppose the problem lies in the moderator posting improperly or a broken connection somewhere. I will contact the moderator and try to straighten things out. Brian H. Powell UUCP: {ihnp4,seismo,ctvax}!ut-sally!brian ARPA: brian@sally.UTEXAS.EDU U.S. Mail: Southwestern Bell P.O.

Actually, the problem is that there haven't been any new infomac digests...
I ftp'd the November archive, and there haven't been any new ones., and there
is no December archive as of yet, so.....
....I would assume that the moderator must be too busy to put digests together.
(Note, most of these digests are done as "midnight projects", and occasionally
the work one get paid to do must interfere with what one WANTS to do...)

As a Jew, you should know that > it should rule every part of your life (whether Jew or Christian). I believe that christianity is a system of "harmful lies about the nature of things" (Aldous Huxley, quoted from memory), so while I'll certainly defend your freedom of belief and expression, I'd personally rather you kept your religion to yourself. Why not keep the net for shared interests, instead of importing the age-old seeds of division and conflict?

ALL RIGHT!!!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!! Listen folks, there is enough grief about mac groups cluttering up the net without this being bickering adding more clutter. I personally could care less how people express themselves in their signatures, but I DO CARE if we lose net.*.mac* due to transfer volumes. If you want to continue this "discussion" please move it to net.religion or better yet net.fistfight! 'NUFF SAID.
