This is not the answer, even if it were possible, and it is not. Suppose I
thought this post was inappropriate. I could have rm'ed the article and kept
it from showing up. Heck I could rmuser you if it struck my fancy. I strongly
disagree with the opinion expressed here, but I didn't prevent your speaking
your mind. To do otherwise is plain wrong.

I'm afraid that Wichita is a hotbed for censorship. NYPD Blue did not air here
until February or so. They even banned Olivia Newton John's "Physical" here.
I guess that's why I came out so strongly about the idea of booting people 
just for their choice of words. Censorship sucks.

Tune in to alt.tv.beavis-n-butthead to see a very colorful discussion along
these lines. Supposedly some AOL poster got a warning from someone on AOL
about inappropriate posting.
