	What's most revolting is that he's making trouble and hounding
attention in news.*, instead of soc.*, where it belongs.   If I cared
about this stuff, I'd carry soc.line_noise.  So, why am I posting this?

A suggestion:  I think this whole brouhaha started over some questionable
material in soc.women.  Since having soc.women as an open group seems to 
result in an uncomfortable environment for its readers, and in spill-overs
to other groups, I think soc.women should be *moderated*.  Remember 
.women.only ?  The moderator's job would be simple: No postings by men.
Thus, no feminist vs. MCP flame wars.  No cross-posted garbage.  The
women get a for,by,and about women newsgroup.  Matter of fact, if 
it goes over, *I'd* volunteer for moderator.  I mean this in all seriousness,
and with no implied sexism or denigration of anyone.  So flames>/dev/null.

                                                       Lou Marco

ps - Of course, people like MES would need a note
from their SA attesting to their sex.  Like for
the Security mailing list....
