If people are responsible then censorship is superfluous, but if they aren't then other people are going to come to the conclusion that it is a grim neccessity. As far as net.gay goes I think that it is going too far. The same is probably true for net.women.only. John Collins Root Computers Ltdd vax135!ukc!root44!jmc
