Keywords: My votes Message-ID: <3564@ficc.uu.net> Date: 26 Mar 89 11:35:08 GMT Organization: Ferranti International Controls Lines: 32 I've seen within the last several hours a posting that says that Brad will ask explicit, case-by-case permission when he wants to use a joke in rec.humor for his GEnie transmissions. If that's the case, and since (a) Brad has already notified the net that postings to rhf are fair game for his transmissions, and (b) Brad will not be deriving income from *within* the net, but rather from *outside* the net, the only reasons to object to his arrangement would be either (a) ad hominem, or (b) antipathy toward money-making in general. Therefore, please list my votes as follows: 1. YES, on "allowing" Brad to make the GEnie connection; 2. YES, on respecting Brad's natural and Constitutional right to regurgitate other people's racist garbage if he finds said garbage funny; and 3. YES, on Brad someday - the sooner the better - developing enough class, self-respect, and integrity that he will *voluntarily* refrain from such regurgitation. Now, can we move on to other topics, such as creation of talk.Texasindependence? Para un Tejas Libre, Jeff Daiell -- Fiat Justitia, Ruat Caelum
