Re: net.terrorism

Because it seems we have denigrated to finger pointing and attacking
members of the list, in spite of the condenses opinion that we would
not do this to each other. net.terrorism is a very poor choice of word
since no carrier is required to carry traffic that is deemed harmful to
its downstream client's and to use this list to blackmail or harm
anyone's interest violates the operational fabric of the entire group.

This is shameful and unprofessional in my humble opinion and should
cease now.
