Segregation kills society, so what would it do for P.L.U.G.

How can you hope to attract new members and Linux supporters if you want to segregate them at what 
is often/usually their first approach to P.L.U.G. 

I thought "WE" were a community of "Like minded Individuals" - but I guess I joined the wrong club.

"Open software - closed minds" at work here - hummmmmph !

If you elitist @#^%&*'s want segregation why not set up secret list, and spare us newbies the crap 
in our mailboxes.

All for one and one for all !!!
