If it starts getting "hateful" and nasty by all means delete it! The guy was just expressing his feelings and opinions on a computer chess related issue. We've certainly tolerated a lot worse in my opinion. I don't agree with his sentiment though. I got the email from Ed and was not upset in the least. He has a right to advertise. Even if Ed picked names from CCC (which is possible for anyone to do) I would not fault him for this. The names are available and the subject was computer chess. But as it is, he did not even get the names this way. - Don
