- 1993 December 10, Jim Jewett, “(long) marginalization (rec.food.veg* comp.dcom.telecom*)”, in alt.culture.usenet, Usenet:
- I suspect that this may be an example if you're willing to consider the moderator of comp.dcom.telecom as the "Group" trying to shout down a proposal. On the other hand, since the purpose of the group was to end his moderatorhood, it isn't clearcut.
