   And you were so close! Why do people think assaulting an innocent
   newsgroup will help??  Flooding it with noise or denying access
   of it to your users won't do *ANYTHING* to help! At most it will
   confirm "their" opinion that readers of alt.drugs are mindless,
   drugged out idiots.

   Likewise, bashing on AT&T won't help either. The problem lies with
   the NNAB.  If you want to do something constructive, send mail to:

        Bill Holland
	cblpf!holland
	8-353-4906
	614-860-4906 

   Please make your letter polite, tactful, and concise. Bear in
   mind that *anyone* could be reading it!! (think of Ian Ross as part
   of your audience!!!)

   Those of you who don't work for AT&T, we'd appreciate your support
   as well!
