[IMC-Editorial] Letter on the Pledge of Allegiance

[sheelanagig at juno.com]

Didn't this IMC list ask these Ayn Rand people to STOP spamming this
list????
People seemed to be in agreement that these Ayn Rand posts NEVER are
posted on any IMC's!

Why is Ayn Rand not respecting our request for them to STOP spamming this
list?

Hey, Ayn Rand people...you reading this?
