	An article by John Schwartz <schwartzj@washpost.com> in today's
(Monday 12/26) Washington Post Business Section details some of the 
sticky issues about cancelbots possibly becoming censorship.
	My only complaint is that the article doesn't mention that
CancelMoose[TM] issues cancels based on frequency and not on content, and
in fact has made it clear on a number of occasions just how much he/she/it
would rather not have had to cancel a well-meaning message, but did so
because it was spam -- and spam is always spam.
