Re: [atlarge-discuss] Move to suspend Jeff Williams membership



You folks need to also understand that a public outcry to quash someone's
membership for cause may be OK but if you cannot substantiate that you are
walking on very shaky legal grounds...

I suggest that a formal process for limiting posting rights may be in order,
but that short of that, there is no other possible outcome here than a
lawsuit as far as I can tell.
