I have finally either (a) run out of time, or (b) figured it out. But
here is my final conclusion:

Anyone who wants to bitch can do so; I don't care. Anyone who wants to
criticize can do so; if it's constructive I'll listen, if not I don't
care. Anyone who wants to censor my contributions (on- or off-topic) to
this community... well, can't, which is just the way I like it.

I have better things to do than join the ranks of those who forgot to
remove the thermometer from their ass during their last childhood fever.
I will, henceforth, blithely live my life and post as I please. The day
the content on this list becomes unacceptable to me, I'll leave. Until
then, this is a community and free speech applies regardless of where my
two bits (pun intended) come from. Anyone who doesn't like that, can
leave or let live.

So sayeth He Who Hath Spoken. <grin>
