<span class="gI"><br>I'm with Thomas Lowenhaupt on this one. Self censorship is the only way this list is going to survive. The filter is a powerful tool.

<div>My belief at this moment is that the "mass unsubscribing" is simply a tool being used by those to get what they want. And that would be to discredit this list because it is not following the quiters desired results. I believe there is some history to Milton and Fausset doing this in ICANN. I hope I am wrong.</div>
</td></tr></tbody></table></blockquote><div><br>I agree. It's an old trick taught years ago to members of the BWG (Boston Working Group). It's just elitist intellectual intimidation tactics learned from the Internet pros. But in the end Milton is no Chomsky. Thats what he has done to himself by participating in this libelous and slanderous censorship troll feeding episode. This list is full of censorship trolls and Milton should know better then to feed the trolls.<br>
