Not that I care--just an observation--some that complain go on to quote me in message after message. But in terms of deciding who to address I do have to be selective for matters of personal time and also because some, like yourself, make points that are utter nonsense, present them in an uncivil fashion, or repeat arguments over and and over when there is a disagreement and no resolution will come of it. I believe in the absolute necessity of consumer protection legislation on the usenet and also universal access--you do not and we'll never agree. I haven't seen anything new in your argumets worth more the time of addressing although I may very well have carelessly bypassed something. There are a few here that I don't address at all anymore because they have histories of dishonesty and there is no point--you are not in that catagory. If you have clear question that hasn't already been addressed please present it in a concise and non-insulting manner and I'll address it if it's rational. But I'll debate the wisdom of Ma. Campaign finance law for example--it exists and those who disagree with it have every right to change it just as I have every right to see to it that it is encorced and to advocate for its expansion.
