But Barbara, many people continue to attack others and are not "put on review". I have made many posts to the list recently that have not shown up. I initially suspected censoring, because of what I had heard. To be fair, it could be an email problem, however, all my other emails seem to be getting through to other people. One of the things I posted recently was my happiness at having the stem cell debate stopped. Healthy debate is a good thing, but this is more of an argument, which often degenerates into name calling from both sides, and amounts to no good. Maybe there have been people from both sides of the issue "put on review" and we have only heard from the one side?

The message accuses John Cottingham and me of censoring the writer's postings to the list because they did not support "our" political view. Believe me, his political position has nothing to do with his being placed "on review". It was his continuing to attack the person not the issue even after several warnings. List wars don't do any good; lively discussion/debate does. Neither John nor I 'censor' anything posted to the list ... only those who continually abuse the privilege have been put 'on review'...it's as big a pain to us as it is to them and isn't something we take lightly.
