1984?!!  Orwell's Prediction of Big Brother is Off By 12 Years!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 When you visit my Home Page, you will now be met with a "site
under construction" message.  This is NOT TRUE!  My server has 
removed my home page, thereby preventing my further communication
with you. Soon you may not see my posts at all. In the past I 
have warned you of the increased momentum toward censorship and 
infringement upon our rights to free speech on the net.In my 
case it is now manifesting fullblown. Censorship is slow, 
incremental, but inexorable in its progression. It must be 
stopped at the subtle levels. It must be stopped now!  It has 
already started with me. It will surely spread to others who 
voice serious concerns about the present course our country is 
on. Do nothing about it and your neighbor will be next, then
it will be you. E-mail your representative in Washington now 
and express your concerns. If you're of a mind to, drop a note
to my server administrator and tell him what you think about 
the matter, regardless of what position you may take.  This is
still our country, but it won't be for long if we do not stand 
responsible for ourselves.
