	You didn't delete enough.

	I didn't post to comp.sys.atari.st. I posted to comp.sys.amiga.
I hate to tell you but ANYBODY who posts in response to a cross posting, will
have their posting in both groups. This is why I got so upset. Most people
don't know that, obviously you didn't know either. Your posting is there too.
I wasn't bashing the ST to get confidence. I'm not even interested in bashing
because it's a waste of time and net bandwith. But I won't tolerate cross
posting of bullshit. You fell into this trap, and that was the very thing
I was hoping everybody would avoid. Cross posting is a no no for this reason.

PLEASE everybody, don't respond to cross postings unless you know what you
are in for. Take me for an example. (That was my purpose)

	Everybody makes a fool of themselves at one time or another. I didn't
flame without purpose. I was hoping to make my above point clear. I guess I
failed at that. If I didn't post, somebody else would have. Perhaps this is an
education for somebody.

	I couldn't agree more. Sorry if this isn't working out this way.

Notice once again, this is a non cross posted response.
