Alas, Tom, this is untrue.  My posts to rec.guns are being stopped by
the moderator, as are at least some of the other pro-anon messages going
to the group.  I put a Bcc: list up including you and others who had
commented on the [ANON] thread there or to me by netmail so you would
have an unfiltered source for my posts in the continuing discussion.

You may get two more posts from a mailing I already sent out tonight,
but in that you are apparently requesting that you receive no more
netmail on this I will delete your name.

Any others receiving these posts netmail who do not wish to, please let
me know and I will delete them from the Bcc: list, with my apologies.

If indeed the moderator was following his philosophy of - what was it? -
"sunlight" or "openness," in the newsgroup instead of selective
suppression of dissenting messages, these mailings would have been
unnecessary.

Thanks for your patience.
