- Some people are mistakenly assuming that what I did was motivated solely by
- freedom of information concerns. This is not the case.
-
- Distribution of information on paper is wasteful and environmentally
- unsound. I did not want to contribute to this waste of resources, and I
- wanted to make it easier for other people to also not waste resources.
-
- I posted to talk.environment in hopes that people might start thinking of
- computer networks as a more environementally-sound alternative to our
- current system of information distribution.
