Response to Censorship on this news group

Perhaps since I posted the first response, this one can be last. Volker, you may freely say anything you wish on the Internet about your car, film, or any other subject. Just as long as you say it on one or more Volker Schier bulletin boards. With this I suspect everyone would agree. However, censorship is neither a bad word nor illegal/unconstitutional (in the US, where Black and White World is located) when practiced by a private entity controlling its own bulletin board. Only censorship by government is prohibited. I believe Ed has gone well beyond the call of duty - - and, as a volunteer he really has no "duty" - - in making public statements of regret here. If you think your words are unjustifiably censored (again, not inherently a bad word) on this board, try saying something remotely negative on the Mamiya/Toyo boards and see how long that post survives!
