I guess I am missing something here.  I didn't read the article your
refering to.  But my natural response is, if it's good (bad?) enough
for one newsgroup it sholud be the same for all.  Why do so many people
on the net feel it's OK to offend others only in designated areas of the
net?  Either you can offend people everywhere or you shouldn't do it
anywhere.

                                           Confused
