Marlboro:

Thank you for your response and explanation. And I do accept that you were not the source of deletion of my posting of last night It is not my intent to be petty. However it is also reasonable to remember a quotation from the French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau. "I may not agree with a thing you say. But I will defend unto my death your right to say it."

In my opinion, censorship is most always egregious and other than in cases of lewdness or similar inappropriate in the extreme speech , should not be practiced. Freedom of expression is a cornerstone of basic human rights and absolutely required if totalirianism is to be avoided. And since the rules on the CLL Board permit such communication on weekends, it should be respected by all. Even the individual who deemed fit to abridge this right and instead substituted their unilateral privilige. As I owe the same right to that individual.
