It is enough reason for me to feel justified in refusing to direct female postal workers to that site, and if that means being disruptive I think it is an issue that is worth being disruptive about.  While I'm sure my postie wants a secure and rewarding career, I'm also pretty sure she wouldn't want to be raped.

The point is Danny, that Indymedia is NOT a discussion forum. It is 
there for grassroots reporting on events related to the uk social 
movements. If there is a thread on Libcom you are concerned about, there 
is little us at Indymedia or any of its users can do about that.

If you have an issue with something on Libcom, I would ask you to try 
and sort it out with them or on their site, instead of cross-posting 
comments all over UK Indymedia.

Thanks, Wietse
