Hi DaveK ...

In <address@hidden>, you posed the question:

Several reasons come to mind:

 1. it causes servers to turn off 3rd party cancels, and compliance
    with RFC-1036 is a very good thing.

 2. it gives the Censorship Cabal a taste of their own bitter remedy.

 3. it discourages newbies from playing NANAU/NANAE complainer games.

 4. it forces discussions like this.

In the immortal words of Mr.Boursy:  "if one may cancel, all may do so".

   ... HipCrime

"Madness" is a rare condition, consisting of a human mind which 
does not engage its environment correctly.  Madness is always better 
than X, and X to each patient is individual, personal, secret, and 
overwhelmingly important.
