OLDaily has, like NewsScan, also experienced difficulties with software filters. You probably know by now that I'll brave most anything to get an issue out, no matter how truncated. So if your OLDaily doesn't show up, look first to your filtering system. That said, I feel for NewsScan, a useful publication that rubbed the filters the wrong way yesterday with a quote from Henry James. I won't restate the quote here, but I will echo these sentiments: "It's deliciously ironic that the 'unacceptable' language in NewsScan Daily was quoted from one of the most respected intellectual publications in the world, Commentary magazine -- and was an observation about the inarticulate and uneducated young people who show up in today's institutions of higher learning. Well, what can we say, other that we are shocked, shocked, at what has happened. Something, we realize, has changed in the nature of civilized discourse in America. And yet we will continue calling attention to Henry James any time we feel like it -- and software filters be d*mned!"
