Before anyone takes this thread about chickens and censure of the 4th 
estate to seriously,  a historical view will reveal that the drug 
medication deprived "Cranky old Coot" noted the public nature of the WWW 
and this forum when the reporter's apparent actions were first brought up.

As I reread my words I see no suggestion that anyone be cen/sor/ed. I 
did suggest cen/sure/ of the paper/reporter for bad form. And I do 
lament any self-censorship of the free flow of ideas and opinions in 
this forum do to the actions of others {of course within the guidance 
for this forum, good taste and good citizenship, which are all the same.}

Cranky Old Coot's Keeper

P.S. I really, really am sorry about that signature element, but we were 
talking about chickens ...
