Edited Discussions,

The following links are to discussions which have been edited and posted by a single individual with an interest in advancing a particular view (the editor is invariably one of the main interlocutors). Obviously, edited discussions tend to reflect a certain point of view. At the present time the bulk of these discussions are from David Armstrong's discussion list.
