RE: Anyone not in favor of a PR-Action against Jefsey Morfin

For example, consider two college roommates.  One wishes to 
exercise 
his freedom of expression by listing to music until 3 AM in the 
morning (without the benefit of headphones, of course!).  The other 
wishes to exercise his right to get sufficient sleep so as 
to be well 
rested for the big exam the following morning.  Clearly, each 
roommate, taken individually, is exercising a reasonable 
freedom, but 
in this case they have come into conflict.

The student listening to music need only put on headphones, 
then they will both be happy.  It's a poor analogy.


Need implies accepting someone elses constraints. That's a poor
simplification, because 100 people could tell someone that they "need" to
stop posting friviously and harming list progress, and they can still chose
to ignore it if there are no teeth to the rules.
