David, an important correction. Prodigy restricted NOT the users who
protested, but those who used Prodigy E-Mail to urge others to BOYCOTT
Prodigy. Prodigy is not a public utility, but a private business
enterprise and as such does not have to subsidize (unlimited E-Mail is
still free, until the end of the year, I believe) efforts whose
intention is to put it out of business.
Cheers,
             TM
