Fractelle and Passy;

What you say about OLO is right... I think those who run OLO have a liberal pluralist outlook - which looks to a participatory and pluralist public sphere...

This is a good thing - and for all our sakes I hope these kind of forums continue to win readers away from mainstream media which have policies of arbitrary exclusion...

I wish, personally, that I could reach a broader audience - but Fairfax won't even publish my letters... I hope this will change one day - but I'm not about to compromise myself just to get a by-line.

That's without considering the tabloid media - and their usually even greater tendency to exclude material contrary to their conservative 'line'... ( In Sweden, I think the biggest daily tabloid is run by unions - perhaps the sort of development we need see here too?)

Again - As a liberal; a pluralist; one who believes in participatory democracy - it is crucial to build these kind of forums...

Take care, everyone - and all the best...
