continued inflammatory and off-topic responses to constructive emails [was Re: [Campaigns-l] blog efficiency in politics: the Finland case]

[Attila Csordas]

Hello everybody,
there is no problem at all. I just wanted to show a good example of the
efficiency of web in participatory politics, and I was 100% neutral about
the topic, so I was not afflicted in any respect. Mission accomplished. Good
luck to the Campaigns Wikia maillist, I feel myself fascinated about that,
since we have the opportunity to hear Jimmy Wales himself in Budapest,
Europe, Earth.

Cheers,
Attila,
