Zeke,

Note number one that I did not write that message. Note number two that
I had asked you, politely, to abstain from making socio-political
ramblings on the mailing list. You're welcome to come to the meetings
and engage whoever's interested in dialog. It's not welcome on the list. 

This is not an anti-gay thing. This is not an anti-whatever thing. Those
topics aren't what I want to see on this mailing list.

People are welcome to engage in on-topic discussion, ask questions, and
what-not. Remember, Berkeley _Unix_ User Group. I'd like the mailing
list to stay focused on things like that. The meetings are fair game.
