I have posted articles on how to use software, like UniTerm and I have posted some (albeit few) somewhat positive articles RECENTLY about various aspects of the TT. >I told you years ago that Atari is lousy. Anyone who disagrees is silly". When did I say that. Please quote me if you can. >(He used to claim to be a financial expert until he publicly failed to notice >that Jack Tramiel should be considered an Atari 'insider'). When was this??? I don't remember seeing any such post. What idiot would claim that a major shareholder of a corporation wasn't an insider. Again, I challenge you to quote me. >I say enough is >enough. He's getting not just annoying, but excessively annoying. As of the >next dumb, provocative, insulting message I'm mailing to postmasters >between him and me asking them to cut him off.

I suspect that nobody can censure me for expressing my opinion. I have neither threatened anyone, nor used foul language, nor have I insulted anyone. If you don't agree with my opinion, that is your right. I have the right to express mine. If you don't like it, you can ignore it. So complain away if you wish. All I ask is that you include this note in your complaint. > Steve J. ------------------------------+--------------------------- Chris Mauritz |D{r det finns en |l, finns cmm1@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu |det en plan!
