Lately it's been suffering an overload of irrelevant articles that rightly belong in net.poli- tics. These articles address the issues of discrimination and affirmative action, obstensibly as they apply to women. However a large (and insufferably long-winded) portion of these articles have nothing to do with women. (I wasn't going to say anything, but a long and typically stupid posting of tripe from the Great Prophet Ayn Rand was just too much for me. If I want to read garbage like that, I'd not have unsubscribed from net.politics.) So please, if what you're going to write has nothing to do with women, don't automatically send it to net.women. Thank you. <_Jym_> :::::::::::::::: Jym Dyer ::::' :: `:::: Dracut, Massachusetts ::' :: `:: :: :: :: DYER%VAXUUM.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA :: .::::. :: {allegra|decvax|ihnp4|ucbvax}!decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-vaxuum!dyer ::..:' :: `:..:: ::::. :: .:::: Statements made in this article are my own; they might not :::::::::::::::: reflect the views of |d|i|g|i|t|a|l| Equipment Corporation.
