Paul Eggert: ) But to refuse to cite a book purely for political reasons smacks of censorship, This is nothing but knee-jerk bullshit, Paul, and you should be ashamed of such sloppy logic-free thinking. To refuse to say certain things is not censorship. Failing to give free use of one's own soapbox to opponents is not censorship. Censorship consists of preventing certain things from being said by others. (Can you believe that some people go so far as to claim that refusing to *read* certain things is censorship? People that stupid ought to have their usenet privileges revoked! :-) ________________________________________________________ Matt Crawford matt@oddjob.uchicago.edu
