Hey, why not remove *all* the pain and resign from naipr at arin.net?  If you
don't want to see the discussion, then don't.  That's the easiest.  If you
don't remember how, we can help you find the instructions.

One of the best things that ever happened to me in my career as a
journalist was that I was forced to read *ALL* of the mail generated by my
articles.  It taught me a number of things about how to present my views in
a way that could be understood by the widest audience as quickly as
possible.

I also learned that some of the most awful dreck had something to which I
needed to pay attention.  It's a little like copper mining today:  you have
to go through a lot of tailings to get a little metal, but people *want*
the metal.

There is a contrary view held by others.  I suggest that if you don't want
to see any more contrary views, you better add me to your mail filter as
well.
