I second what Steve has said here.

I am also new to the list and I am a tech guy not a politician and  
have no desire
to be one. This one discussion if you will has come close to creating  
a arin spam
folder or just removing myself.

There is probably a need for this type of thing but like Steve, I  
think a "politics"
list would be very appropriate. I would still like to see the arin  
info that is sent
out here but if it involves politics then anyone wanting to respond  
should go to
the politics discussion to debate it out. So both groups would be  
served and
neither would be left out of the loop.
