Joel,

Once again bud, you're mistaken. The only reason the list went down 
was because an unnamed instructor put pressure on me here at my 
office to either moderate or shut the list down. I've decided to shut 
it down. It had nothing to do with any other person. 

"Phil Wooley" (as I'll call him to avoid making a public statement of 
blame) had been "faked". Rather then take it up with the person he 
thought was responsible (he thinks it's someone who wants to be in 
with the "big crowd" or something), he felt it better to come crying 
to me. Once again we don't know who is doing the fake messages, all 
we know is that someone had been sending out messages as "Phil" and 
he was too thin-skinned to let it slide.

It's really frustrating to me to have these guys show up at my office 
bitching about the list, so I had no recourse but to shut it down.

And in regards to stuffing it, yes, I believe he does stuff the long 
hose.

Ken
