Interesting, Patricia is doing a job that used to be done by Gene
Spafford (SPAF), before he organized CERT (the real net-police),
and is doing it much more diplomatically and graciously than Spaf ever
did. If she didn't do it, there would be some nasty side effects like
systems administrators not taking the alt feeds. If you've ever been on
a system that didn't take the alt.personals or alt.* you know what you
were missing.

I'm a male feminist. People recognize this when I express sentiments
that differentiate me from a tin soldier.
