- So we should accept somebody's interpetation of how USENET should operate,
- rather that the agreed on, written and voted on method? If you're machine
- can't run it, get a better machine, or don't run it. That is what minimum
- specs are about, if you can't keep up with the technology, then you can't
- keep up with the technology, bottom line... Don't try to assume some
- arbitray rule that goes against the agreed on standard, and try to coax
- other people to your opinion with a 'but everybody thinks like this...',
- just because you feel left out. It obviously isn't true, as the votes are
- in, many 'non-binary' groups allow binary postings.

- I've busted my butt to get an USENET system that can handle any
- eventiality, it is reasonable to expect others to do the same. But this
- binary censor-bot goes against the rules that we all agreed on when we
- hooked up to USENET and it degrades the quality for me, my customers and
- anybody who uses USENET and this is where I take my stand. Should I need
- to, I will autodetect censor-bot cancels and reissue the cancled posting,
- propagating the USENET feed is one of the things I agreed to when I
- connected to USENET...
