It is a historic occasion!  JP now _admits_ that he sold censored
newsfeeds!  Today is a red letter day.

According to jp@tygra.Michigan.COM (John Palmer):
>We do not now nor have we ever censored stuff that our customers want.

So, John, did you _ask_ your customers if they wanted articles posted
by the other people who used zorch?

>Kents postings were clogging up my disk space and I'll be damned if I
>will let him store his slander on my system.
> 
>When a user said that they wanted some stuff from Zorch, I took out
>the kill-code. 

Of course, JP now has an even bigger hypocrite ratio than before.

Remember his repeated claims that DDMI never sold a censored newsfeed?
They were all lies.

And remember <1991Feb20.142553.29395@tygra.UUCP>, when JP posted under
his "Ian" persona:

+What you are asking us to do is to prevent Mr. Randall from posting
+because his opinions and personality are not to the liking of a 
+number of people. I have seen you dish out much worse in alt.flame and
+talk.bizarre in the last few weeks. Maybe we should censor you as well.

My, my.
