I _hope_ I haven't either.  I tried very hard to insist that users
weren't TRYING to run afoul of these rules, they weren't trying to
hurt anyone-- quite the contrary, they were trying to protect people.
 But look at the RFC--- a lot of us are more scared of the police than
we are of the vandals.

Well, I know it's supposed to be a negative commentary, but all the
same, thank you for calling me a "free speecher"-- it's a most welcome
change of pace. :)
