I'd like to remind everyone to stick to the topic of the list - Web
systems and libraries. A discussion of the relative merits or demerits of
the ACLU and/or conservative Christian organizations is, however gripping
it may be, outside the scope of this list. If you feel it necessary to
defend your particular perspective, please do it off-list. Thank you,
