Why am I getting the distinct impression that any disagreement
with Mark Ethan Smith is tantamount to a personal attack and/or
harassment?

P.S.  By the way, USENET is not a system entirely supported by
public funds.  It is paid for by the systems that participate,
many of which are computers owned by private companies.  In
one way or another, most, if not all, of the costs are passed
on to the various users.  First Amendment rights to freedom
of speech do not necessarily apply, although convention on the
nets is to permit great discretion.
