     Why wouldn't we.  Hey, we'll even post in that echo just as
we welcome debate from all sides, we expect them to do the same.
I think there users would settle for nothing less.  I certainly
hope that they don't name the echo BLINDTALK, though.  That might
be a tad on the excessively annoying side to many sysops who have
enough to do to keep their boards running smoothly besides having
to cope with such exceedingly close names.  Of course, if it's an
NFB policy echo--for members only, then sysops would be stuck
setting up keys and locks (security codes) and it might get
interesting having to check out the users who ask for access.
