Townson) Organization: Chinet - Public Access Unix Lines: 19 In the detailed explanation of the audit which took place of the votes for and against Brad Templeton's proposal, only one possibility was not covered: that he mistated what would actually be occurring. If the vote is taken again, and the question phrased more appropriatly, I am sure the results will be quite different. The question which should be asked (which Brad did not ask) is -- "Shall Usenet Moderators be permitted to export submissions given to them by Usenet users off the net and use these exported submissions on commercial networks?" Let's make the question correct to begin with, and *then* vote. -- Patrick Townson patrick@chinet.chi.il.us / US Mail: 60690-1570 (personal zip code) FIDO: 115/743 / AT&T Mail: 529-6378 (!ptownson) / MCI Mail: 222-4956
