NO. it would be moderated out. net.flame is the editoral page of the net. it's where you let it all hang out, and you tell YOUR side of the story, forget the other dumb-witted dirtbag who can't see the RIGHT opinion. see? SEE?? mod.flame? ha. ha-ha. it is to laugh. nothing personal, biep , i just had to show an example of what WOULDN'T make it to mod.flame. flame has a purpose, let's not even suggest bogus wimpy quiche eating groups like mod.flame. ron "mrmachoimrightyougotohellyoudirtbag" vaughn
