I've just checked, and our local New Hampshire board has no "Rants and Raves" option. I can't imagine it being allowed here, but life is full of surprises. |

From: Amos Craigslist is being pressured to take a leedle more responsibility for what people post on it lately, as it was being used in some cases as a sexual services bulletin board. They would argue that they are merely a medium and should no more be held accountable for content than a men's room wall is. A |

Personals, etc... You look around and you'll find "Rants & Raves"... Don't open it if you ain't in the mood to be very pissed off... And not just at Craigslist but to our fellow citizens who think like this... B~ |
