Cheryl, is there stuff about ACB on the GDF list or just g d u i.  I can 
sort of see not putting stuff on there about things that are not 
dog-related.  Marion and I might want to address this with
gGDF perhaps.

In other words, it also depends on how the item ou're placing there is 
worded.  It also depends on the bias of the list. There are all kinds of 
reasons for this.

Cheryl could you send me an example of something you placed on that list 
that wasn' received very well?  Thanks.
