Everything you take in has been editted in one way, or another. If you get news from TV, some editor has decided what gets shown, and what doesn't. Newspapers and magazines have editors as well. Even your own sight and hearing have been editted by your own physical limitations. Greg was not thinking for other people, he was doing two things. He removed advertisements so ST-Report could be transmitted over the network, and he removed articles that were either duplicates, or non ST related. He added his own editorial comments, but that could hardly be misconstrued as withholding information. If you really think that Greg was trying to do all the thinking around here, I think that maybe you should ask Greg to do some thinking for you, so that things can be set straight in your mind. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- kclenden@silver.bacs.indiana.edu Kevin Clendenien BLAST BBS - (812) 332-0573 BLAST, President "I want someone like you, only nicer."
