Dear Kevin:
  Do you think it would be easy/feasible to impliment a simple filter to 
screen out the worst of the non-PC language used FREQUENTLY on 
cryonet. Perhaps the most potent effect of this if it were implimented as 
an option would be not so much to screen out bad words, but to make aware 
how unpleasant foul language can be to most people. It might have 
a moderating effect in this regard. Cryonet is the worst offender I have 
yet come across in an email group for non-PC speech. I am amazed at the 
depth of negative feeling of many frequent contributors. I am afraid that 
cryonet is not a very effective advertisement for the concept of 
cryonics. Rather it seems to paint it as something of a cult, which is 
attracting sociopaths. 

Sincerely         --Doug
