laudatory. That sounds like the criminal class I used to observe on the south
side of St. Louis, Mo. Frankly I am disappointed in hearing that sentiment on
this list -- I thought we were better than to object to someone letting a
person know their property was being stolen.

No one likes a cop--until it's your house getting robbed.
There is a difference between a child reporting that "Bobby said a bad
word" and an adult reporting felonious behavior.

But is a thief worse than an unfair law that is neither desired by the
citzenry nor reflective of the culture?
I refer to the Sonny Bono Copyright extension act, wherein copyright
for existing works of art was extended from 50 years to 75 yrs. And
what was the possible rationale for this? Bribes from the Massa to the
elected officials so that Massa might be able to keep Massa's
intellectual property from the common folk a bit longer....mayhap?
Well, this Bono copyright act is headed for the Supreme Ct (SCOTUS),
thanks to Lawrence Lessig et al.
maybe if we can get the SCOTUS to revoke Bono on constitutional
grounds, we can all go on a posting party and post on Usenet all of
RAH's works from the time period previous to 1952....will you join

Apparently every time his plonk file expires, he puts you back in. Having
entries in the file expire keeps the file from growing forever, and allows
for posters who change their habits. You're apparently consistent enough
that David keeps returning you to the file.

Been thinking of upgrading my browser from Netscape 4.xx. I'd like to stay with
something that has e-mail and browser integrated, ideally the latest Netscape,
if it's stable and upgrades nicely from 4.xx.
Does it have any nice features, like newsgroup twit filters that will hide
messages from selected clueless and/or rude individuals? (Netscape 4.xx may
have such a feature, but a cursory search or two didn't reveal it.) -Eric S.

FWIW, the newbie questions in the Agent newsgroup are roughly [there
are a few from elsewhere] evenly split between people moving to Agent
from Outlook Express and people moving to Agent from one flavor of
Netscape or another.
I have tried Netscape. I have never tried Netscape's Mail or News
features, and wouldn't; just as I ditched OE just as soon as I could
get Agent and Eudora up and running. People who do web browsers as
their primary effort tend to pay little attention to their mail
feature, and even less to their news feature, assuming they have
either.

I have both 4.76 and 7.0 on my system, but rarely use 7.0 and don't really
have a feel for any new features. One thing I definitely don't like is tha
the AIM with it apparently cannot create a shortcut to a chat room the way
4.76 can. That makes it definitely unfriendly for our Heinlein Reader
Discussion Groups chats.

The new Opera browser is supposed to have news filters, etc. I haven't
tried them personally, but its a free download. In fact, if you download
without the Java and try out the news and mail first, its a small download.

I'm using Opera as my browser of choice for quite some time now, but
the mail and news part of it stinks. Mail might be... acceptable, if
you don't expect too much, but the integrated newsreader is nearly
useless. (At least in Opera 6.x, I don't know how much they changed
for the 7.x versions).
Opera is IMO the best browser there is at the moment, but that's it.
Just a browser.

Better to get a mail client that downloads mail automatically when you
connect.
Consider Lynx.

basis for Netscape 6.x/7.x minus the corporate BS added by Netscape for
the AOL side of things. NS7 is based on Moz 1.0.1 code. Mozilla is using
a branching philosophy in their releases. The 1.0.x releases are bug
fixes and 1.x are feature releases, as I understand it. 1.0.1 and 1.1
are both considered stable releases. Bugzilla is their bug tracking and
fixing mechanism. Some of the features like twit filters will be in the
next release 1.3 (1.3 alpha is out now).
For more info on things, goto http://www.mozilla.org Try the 1.1
release which is what I am using now.

Better yet, use Phoenix. It's also based on Mozilla, but has even
more stuff ripped out, in order to create the smallest and most
efficient browser possible. It's only up to version 0.4 at the moment,
but it's already replaced IE on my desktop.

had great stability for months - that's dozens of uploads - but the last
few messed my system up good. Unfortunately, the 1.2b and higher
versions were the ones with the experimental news filters. This requires
me to run Outlook as a backup and permanent email archive. I don't care
for OE at all, so I use Gravity as the newsreader when Moz is down.
There's Beonex too - a stable version of Mozilla. it's always a good
three months behind the Moz builds though.

His own. Somebody who chooses to agress against somebody else's property or
person has chosen a complicated method of suicide. Of course, in these
days in most of the US, the defender of property or person will be more
likely to do hard time than the thief if he lives (it's guaranteed that
will happen in the UK and probably most of the Commonwealth).

I'm all for the right of home defence, but if you're thinking of the
Tony Martin case, he makes a pretty unpleasant martyr for the cause...
the burglar was a lowlife I won't weep for, but it's quite possible
that someone other than Martin might have got off a lot more lightly -
by not telling the police about fantasies of machine-gunning gypsies,
for instance...

This just in: an inquest jury in Spalding, Lincolnshire, has brought
in a verdict of "lawful killing" for a 58-year-old man who stabbed a
knife-wielding 30-year-old burglar to death.
We can get it right.
