Very shortly after I received your private message - and I thank you for 
posting your concerns publicly here as I asked you to - I also received 
a message from Alan Pope, Ubuntu Community Council, (whom I do not know) 
telling me to stop posting "inappropriate text and news to...Sounder".

I must have missed something, but I don't recall having read something 
to tell me what is appropriate and what is not inappropriate to be 
posted in the offtopic forum called Sounder.

I asked Alan to tell me what "inappoprriate text and news" was for 
Sounder. I honestly do not what it is right at this moment.

I shall now go and have a look and see what I obviously missed about 
what Sounder is all about in the Ubuntu list of mail lists.


But, while I am still on this subject, your private complaint to me was 
about the zoological subject heading.

But what that article is pointing out is the stupidity of a very much 
Internet-related topic of having nonsensical filters in place to protect 
the "wowsers" from.....the real world?

Our country's current minister for communications, and whatever, is 
trying to push onto our internet users a filter, which the ISPs are to 
install, which would filter out all sorts of things just like the 
article I posted a reference to. One of the URLs which this proposed 
filter will filter out is a URL for a dental practice in our northern 
state of Queensland because....nobody really knows, even the poor 
dentist doesn't know but because his URL is in the "blacklist" any 
person who tries to access his site will be stopped from doing so - and 
that person will be visited by the "authorities" for trying to 'access a 
porno site' or some such.....

Got the picture?
