With regards to all the concern with respect to slander and libel on this BB I seem to remember that the old USENET used to and may still be a completely unmoderated free for all. Last time I looked at it under the aus.aviation section some time back a certain well-known former chairman of CASA was refrred to in very derogatory terms. Way back in the mists of time during the Gulf war, before fancy colourful browsers (was Mosaic around then?)the old Usenet really displayed online human debauchery in every imaginable form.. .. . Ahhh the good old days!
