  A group in which there are self-styled athorities and the moderator
rejects postings which disagree with them? Boy that sounds great, let's
get rid of all that dissent. The athorities know best, and shouldn't be
bothered with rabble. Perhaps you might have noticed that the above
mentioned group has been guilty of posting a flame or two? Why bother to
have a group if dissenting opinions are to be banned?

  Let's start a 'partyline' heirarchy for these, like partyline.lang.c.
