You must be sick. I have not tried to persuade ANYONE to favor
ANYTHING. I have stated I am shocked at some of your over 
generalizations of students.

You don't think "STUDENTS GO AWAY!!!" suggests anything of the sort, 
correct? Considering a thread title is supposed to "reflect"
the content, I must disagree.

First, I know that it isn't possible to physically ban students from 
posting.

Second, it is possible to make the group so unattractive and vicious
they will not visit it.

The EMAIL recieve by this reader was one such attempt Mr. Dewar.
