This post was addressed to Jay, not the list.  Why?  I, too, am against 
censorship.  I believe that freedom of speech should be protected, as well as 
the freedom of the 
press.  Some things, however, are simply bad taste.   Publicizing the last 
words of Christa McAuliffe as if they will somehow provide the world _any_ 
needed insight is 
one of those things.

the clown looks real cool.  

oh btw.  "irregardless"  not a word.
