Totalitarian List Managers



I've subscribed to BradFramers for 3 years, but during the past 2 years 
I've had my posting
privileges denied because of my harsh criticisms of the way Brad manages 
the list, in particular,
his attempts to suppress criticisms of Adobe.

At one point, dear old Brad even installed a filter that bounced any 
posting (from anyone)
which included my name in it.

On 9/17/00, I unsubscribed prior to an 8-day vacation.

At 9:46 AM on 9/26/00, I attempted to re-subscribe.

Below is the response I received 24 hours later:

Sorry, but you are not allowed to subscribe to 'framers'.
=====================================================
Apparently, Brad thinks the mere act of my reading postings
to his list is dangerous.

The essence of totalitarianism is thoroughness.
