What I find intriguing is how anyone can get upset over an opinion about a
semi-fictional character such as Sally Hemings.  We have those who can no
longer bear to risk further shocking language and they abandon the list. 
We have other self-appointed censors who secretly call the ListManager and
encourage him to bounce the offender.  If this list had a rule that
everyone had to know what they were talking about before they contributed a
post, that could cause serious deletion.
