Please note that somebody picked comp.sys.att just because it had
the name in it.  There is NO official AT&T spokesmanship in this group -
it is just a bunch of us users that have AT&T machines.  We would really
rather not see your cross-postings on a subject that has no relationship
to the newsgroup.  Please note that AT&T still gets almost ALL other
newsgroups except a few dealing with sex, drugs and other things the
corporate enforcers have singled out.  So how about doing your protest
in some other group at least marginally related to your area - it will
still show up at AT&T!  Or pick another group that is somewhat anarchistic
like alt.cyberpunk and use that - please leave our group alone!

This is nobody's opinion but my own (and other readers of this group)
