I think Rolls Royce and Ferraris are very overpriced, but I don't bitch
about it. I just don't buy their products. It's so nice to have a
choice, as we do these days.

Muniac.com is a private site, and I am going to assume the forums are
privately monitored. Scott probably trims content from time to time, at
his sole discretion.

The unicyclist.com forums/rec.sport.unicycling are run as "public"
forums, in that they are not monitored/censored/edited. Most of what
gets done is in the form of cleanup and repiar, but not controlling
content unless it is way outside the rules that have been set for the
forums/newsgroup. So it's a lot more like being able to soap box on a
street corner than Muniac.com apparently is. My own web site would be
similar to Scotts, in that I would only use the content I feel like.

I haven't spent very much time at Muniac.com, and I notice Scott
Bridgeman is not a frequent poster here. To each his own. If you want
free speech, it helps a lot to own the media you're using for
communication... :)
