I just love it when Americans support freedom of speech around the world!
I'm glad to see David is successfully exporting our Bill or Rights! 

Poor David. He thinks "America" means the "USA". And he directs it at 
Canadians (doohh!). 

David probably also thinks the Internet is run by the USA.

Still, I don't know what this is doing in penpals. I don't think David
will get a penpal out of this.

I didn't read into the first user's post that writing to soc.penpals
was ALL they do.  I'm sure they have other interests, but like some of
us who read this newsgroup, they would like the exchange of pen-mail as an
_added_ activity and a way to meet some interesting friends.  I don't
know much about the mta@ca site, why some people can't get through to
it or why someone feels there's only one user with dummy accounts.
If the posts are legit, these people are only asking for what this
newsgroup was created for ... contact with others, penpals, friendships,
etc.

Kevin -
 You really sound pathetic.  I wouldn't worry too much about people not
writing to you.  After all, you're only 16.  Most people on the net are
AT LEAST 20!  Sorry, but I think 'we' think you're too young.

You should be worrying about doing well in school and getting a 1600
on your SATs (they're changing the format, you know!  Test takers will
get their first look at the redesigned SAT in March 1994.  Don't you
feel lucky!)

Just thought I'd tell you this.  Good luck!

I am a teacher at a high school in Los Angeles and recently our
students have gained the ability send e-mail on internet (although
they cannot yet read news).  If any of you are interested in becomming
a penpal with any of these students please write me
(sparangi@usc.edu), they want to get penpals from all over the world.


Thanks,
