We don't NEED every single change that's been discussed. There has been almost zero noise on alt.sources itself since this argument started. Doesn't this suggest something? KEEPING CONSCIOUSNESS AROUSED is the best medicine. Why don't we have a monthly WELCOME TO ALT.SOURCES posting with a 30-day expire, which tells new users what's what? I bet fewer people would post inappropriately if this existed. -- "A man came into the the office one day and said he \|/ Tom Neff was a sailor.
