[Several more lines of similar gibberish removed]

I don't recall Mr. Arnold saying that the Freenet would be the same
system as the SICL or that it would be administered under the same
policies.  The creation of a Freenet is completely CONSISTENT with
these policies as universities often have to enforce guidelines on
the usage of student accounts and students who want more "free" or
"unrestricted" access have to look elsewhere (i.e., Freenet).

Do you have anything better to do with your time than launch
personal attacks on individuals attempting to do some good?
I have no idea who Tim Arnold is, but your post is clearly a
personal attack which has little to do with the Freenet issue.

Grow up.
