Dear Hur AKDULGER, please trie to learn english before you send messages! Nets are not made for saving money for stamps. Even not for the second-and-half-world. Hoping the best Michael GLoger

We discussed this once before. The appropriate request is that the gentlemen limit the distribution of their post to the area that speaks their language. It is very inconsiderate to assume that EVERYONE who can access the net should speak english. If you persist in this short sighted persuit, I will start posting in the language of the day (I'll pick one at random). You are correct in that USENET is not designed for people to save money on postage. It is DESIGNED for people to COMMUNICATE. You seem to be forgetting that. PLEASE GROW UP BEFORE YOU PLAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S TOYS (ie USENET) ciao jeff -- Jeff Watkins gt3070b@prism.gatech.edu "All opinions are mine... so don't even think of keeping some to yourself!"
