So who is polluting the network with a lot of disputable political trash?  The
posting Cynthia referred to seemed more an opportunity for open-minded
people to go work somewhere for free, albeit a controversial location.  Maybe
net.jobs should only be used for paying jobs, but other than that, I find it
unfortunate that such an objective posting should bring on such an outrageous
diatribe.
