   But doesn't need to be.  Nick was just saying that it sure would    
   be refreshing to NOT have to see it everywhere.  What place/need    
   does a Fido newsletter have for politics?

   It was political in nature.  Some of are just wanting an echo that    
   doesn't have that garbage in it.  What's the point of it in here?   
      
   As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure I remember seeing her post    
   that politics wasn't desired/allowed in this echo.  So why does    
   she post it?   
      
   Aren't you tired of seeing it everywhere too?   
      
      
   ... Reality failure.  Press Enter to continuum.
