Hey, I represent that. This is a moderated forum. It is simply moderated within Justice Hugo Black's interpretation of the First Amendment; and also within the principle that the First Amendment includes the right not to listen as well as the right to speak. Moreover, it is a marketplace of ideas, and if what you sellin' stinks, people ain't buyin'.


Regards,

D-Ray

Can't stop you from listening, can't make you listen. That's just sense.

You might consider applying Potter Stewart's standard where Tar Baby is concerned.

Uh...OK. It was kinda represented as unmoderated by an unamed source when I first showed up here. Liberally moderated then...much better anyways.

When I first read your reply, I thought you said "Hey, I resemble that." I really cracked myself up...unless you meant to say, I resemble that.

Thanks, it just had a whiff of something more than a suggestion, but if I overreacted you have my amends.
