Was this written by the real Ed Poor? It is so stupid, that I must assume that the SMTP header was forged. I don't want to be on a mailing list with people this stupid. I would suggest that Ed just pack up his things and leave the project for ever, or we should make an investigation into who really sent that message.

Stop it you two. Lars, Ed was trying to make a valid point and you repay that with a stupid, unproductive and unnecessarily combative response. Granted it wasn't the most productive way to accomplish his ends but Ed is one of our best, if not the best, community builders and he deserves much more respect than that. Your, comment, on the other hand, only tends to tear down community.
SJC, get over it. The wikipedia namespace is not a place for propaganda an POV divisiveness -- it is a place to describe and work on the /NPOV/ encyclopedia. You have already been told that you can use your user page or Meta for most of your POV needs. So this is hardly censorship when we offer you valid forums for this. Then there is also geocities, again free.
