	No.  Way.

	There is no prior restraint.  There is no bar to starting up alternate
voices.  There are established standards.  And as long as the editor follows
them, there isn't any "censorship".  Established practices, etc.

	By this definition, any papers published by government agencies that
are edited, such as US Geological Survey Research papers, California Division
of Mines Geology  maps are censored items.  I find that hard to believe.
