Dumped for what reason?

Well when he's been dumped from the list what do you call that if it's not
censorship.

Regardless of who funds the list I thought it was for free and open (on
topic) discussion?
As such, like any guest, he should obey certain

Measure's observance of civil rules is not out of line and in some cases
well within the rules observance by others on the list.
Look back over the last week and you'll see some pretty vindictive and
arguementive posts way beyond anything Rich posted.
His unwarranted attack and rumor spreading, like he did about

Rumor spreading???
That stuff about Denny is public domain. Whether it's true or not I've heard
the same stories for years about Denny's infidelities and such regarding his
departure from Ameritron.
What Rich was saying about Denny is more legend than late breaking rumor.
> He CANNOT bring himself to do that, so - Bye, Rich
Rich gets no more out of line than many others do on the list. HIS OPINIONS
on the other hand do sometimes put him in the minority.
That is why Rich got dumped, and not some of his more vocal opponents.
Or maybe Rich got dumped because he gets the most complaints about him
because of his often minority views.
