I am not entirely sure that I agree that Ken's message was spam, but this 
is not the place for that discussion.

I don't necessarily see the need to keep things from Steve.  I can 
understand Ken's motivation for doing so, as this list isn't always 
friendly to people who express their opinions, I know this more than most. :-)

Steve is one of the people that I am really glad that I have had a chance 
to meet, get to know and become friends with while geocaching, but as we 
have talked about face to face, I don't completely agree with his stance on 
how to work with the land managers.  That is one of the reason that I was 
greatly relieved that I am not participating in any of the meetings with 
the managers.  Steve and I can disagree on these issues, and remain friends.

I would ask that people keep an open mind about this list.  Perhaps Ken 
should have posted here, but there are those here that would have been 
upset with that also, since they don't seem to want to hear rants here, but 
come on people, this list is worthless if all it is for is to congratulate 
people for reaching certain milestones.  Land use issues are a very 
important issue before us as geocachers, and having strong opinions about 
land use issues is only normal.  I think that this list is the perfect 
place to talk about such things.
