[AccessD] OT Wierd Bayesian Filters

The problem is those in decision-making positions find it easier to
punish all of us than to hunt down the few that are guilty.  Just like
the teacher that keeps the whole class after school instead of going to
the trouble to find out which student was the one that caused whatever
was the problem.

Isn't it great when idiotic prudes rule cyberspace. Now we're getting
legitimate communications censored because the word "H e x" sounds or is
spelled a bit like "S e x". Or it is perhaps it's association with w i t
c h c r a f t? What next? Blocking emails with words which are anagrams
of other "sensitive" words? Who are these faceless idiots who deem what
we can talk about anyway?
