   Well, it's official. I have been banned from posting stories to
alt.good.news. I guess some right-wing fool monitoring his precious
little good news group lacked the intelligence to understand why a 
rape scene in "Danielle" was not sensational violence, and why an 
execution in "Smells Like Free Spirit" embodied an essentially "good news"
theme. 

   Sigh. It's so frustrating having my rights limited by people who lack
the intelligence to even read a story, let alone understand it. In any
case, it seems the alt.good.news Nazi who got me banned is quite proud
of himself.

Sorry, Richard. Their loss. The talented are never understood. Strike one up
for censorship...

You were stretching the net's guidelines a bit apparently :)...
