Motion:

         An item's author, the person who originally enters an item,
         may remove that item from the system, in its entirety,
         at any time before someone responds to it using a different
         login ID.  After another person has responded, an item may be
         removed only if it violates the general policies of grex or
         of the conference it was entered in, or if it clearly abets
         criminal activity.  Examples of the former include a very
         large item that attempts to fill all available disk space,
         items posted more than once or in several conferences at
         once, repetitive items and items that contain terminal
         escape sequences.  Examples of the latter include items
         that contain social security numbers or credit card numbers.
         These examples are not exhaustive; fair-witnesses and staff
         have discretion to act in the best interests of grex and
         its users in accordance with general policies.
