It might be helpful to remember that places of employment are, at best,
benevolent tyrannies, and not democracies.  While I think it's sad that
AT&T Denver removed all netnews, I also feel that it's their prerogative
to follow any policy they like.

I think that 'net.general' is an inappropriate place to discuss, um,
corporate dirty linen.  Talk to your boss, send a message to your
management, talk to someone who can make a difference.  But don't try to
make a public issue out of it.  This will only polarize the situation, and
it won't change a thing.
