Neither do I. I wasn't being `sarcastic'.

On the echoes list of the BBS I use this echo is titled:

Odyssey Fringe Science research Echo.

If you don't invite critical discussion of the subject matter pertaining to
the title of this echo, I suggest you change the title to something that 
only allows narrow, well-defined speech in a straight follow-the-leader sort
of way. 

I don't play `follow the leader'. When I have something I think is pertinent
to a subject an echo's title suggests it is about, I say it.

Sorry if that upsets your agenda.
