Re-posting a ballot form anywhere at all was strictly forbidden, but these days nobody could possibly cast a vote using such a re-posted ballot form as the system would not permit it. Alerting people who have a clear and relevant interest to an ongoing discussion is the natural and appropriate thing to do" It is difficult to see from where the members of this group would find a 'clear and relevant interest'. There are a lot of us reading these newsgroups - and are interested in a moderated group. You already have one, so why don't you go and use it? It's merely a blogfest at the moment. Of course, you don't point out how much you are railing AGAINST the RFD and are doing your best to quash it. I haven't seen any cogent arguments for it, and the lack of support has doubtless led to this inappropriate thread being started, -- Spike "The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in the insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well meaning but without understanding" Louis D.
