Therefore the ban was not meaningless, but in fact effective; it put a stop to the offensive behavior (the racist remarks). How ironic that some of the recent posts decrying the ban contain profanity, itself a "bannable" offense. Neither racism nor profanity belongs on a list about Vanagons, and to Tom's credit, he's been very effective in discouraging both during his tenure as moderator. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT |
