 NO !!! Do you think freedom means listening to my + a million other's
nonsense ? What did I say ? LISTENING ?! Not EVEN THAT !

Communicating ! you'd say... Exchanging ideas ! Arguing about things !

Sure...I'm long and deep into it myself. BUT :
 Communicating about what !? Exchanging ideas about what !?
Arguing about what !? JUST FOR THE ARGUING ITSELF , that's what !

You see, when you lose your threads to your NATURE you try to find a
substitute, whether that's called football, thrash metal, or cyberpunk
lists. (Ooops, getting nasty, eh?)

Preaching:		SHIT MAILING LISTS !
			FUCK NEW PRODUCTS !
			GO OUT ! TALK TO PEOPLE, NOT CABLES !

PS. Address your responds also directly to me, I don't I'll be
   watching the list for long
