   Oh wait, after way too many words, something that seems to be
somewhat coherent, if dead wrong.

   "Free Speech?" Yeah, we've still got the ability to post "F**K YOU"
in public, and not worry about the gov't busting down our
doors. Problem is, that's not what we ever accused you of doing. Your
posts were never in danger of running afoul of the CDA, but were far
afoul of public taste, and the guidelines of usenet. Specifically, "BE
RELEVANT" [to the group you're posting to.] Your posts _were_ not
relevant to any of the apple II newsgroups beyond comp.sys.apple2, but
were posted individually (not crossposted) to all of them.

   People that refuse to learn _will_ have their faults continually
pointed out.  If you can't deal with that, go back to school until you
learn to change.
