Part of me is with you Paul. As much as I support the newsgroup
creation procedure, I have *lots* and *lots* of frustration for the
lack of willingness of Russ Allmighty to let the communities
self-govern their own charters through a simple amendment process. The
'ME ME ME' attitude is the problem with today's Usenet. If ISPs and
NSPs would enforce charters, the will of the community would prevail
..... instead of the will of a handful of luzers!!! (

Oh my Guy, the thousands of texts I've written says it no better than this
one paragraph . Empowering the people and the communities with their own
governments could completely change the reflection of Usenet. Apparently
this is not what the power elite desire, as they foist their obstructing
hand at every opportunity. Eventually, Usenet will lose all intellegence
to the competing technologies. Creating more newsgroups, while, at a
faster pace, littering the landscape with burned out hulks of smoldering
useless effort. This is no solution at all. Empower the people with their
own chosen governments

One thing you can guarantee, though: if you don't try, you'll never
have to find out it might have succeeded, and you can be very smug

148. Other techniques strike deeper that the foregoing. Education is
no longer a simple affair of paddling a kid's behind when he doesn't
know his lessons and patting him on the head when he does know them.
It is becoming a scientific technique for controlling the child's
development. Sylvan Learning Centers, for example, have had great
success in motivating children to study, and psychological techniques
are also used with more or less success in many conventional schools.
"Parenting" techniques that are taught to parents are designed to make
children accept fundamental values of the system and behave in ways
that the system finds desirable. "Mental health" programs,
"intervention" techniques, psychotherapy and so forth are ostensibly
designed to benefit individuals, but in practice they usually serve as
methods for inducing individuals to think and behave as the system
requires. (There is no contradiction here; an individual whose
attitudes or behavior bring him into conflict with the system is up
against a force that is too powerful for him to conquer or escape
from, hence he is likely to suffer from stress, frustration, defeat.
His path will be much easier if he thinks and behaves as the system
requires. In that sense the system is acting for the benefit of the
individual when it brainwashes him into conformity.) Child abuse in
its gross and obvious forms is disapproved in most if not all
cultures. Tormenting a child for a trivial reason or no reason at all
is something that appalls almost everyone. But many psychologists
interpret the concept of abuse much more broadly. Is spanking, when
used as part of a rational and consistent system of discipline, a form
of abuse? The question will ultimately be decided by whether or not
spanking tends to produce behavior that makes a person fit in well
