Many of us who expressed opinions against net.origins have been
critisized for trying to stiffle the free exchange of ideas. Some
of our detractors have even found it necessary to ease their troubled
consciences by apologizing to Paul Dubuc on our behalf.  It's
unfortunate that the free expression of OUR opinions were so repugnent
to them.

Feingold's  article did strike one reasonant cord. I remember reading
Bogolubov's (sp?) Stat. Mech. book in grad school and encountering a
two page footnote regarding the Marxian, dialectical materialist,
interpretation of the 2nd Law of Thermo. and its criticism of the
"bourgeois" interpretation.  Some of us don't want that happening
here.
