To all Usenet readers: I am posting this note in a separate basenote to apologize for my previous flame of RAY JOHNSON of GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY. He has not stiffed me. I received his check in the mail today for the correct amount. Like all of you, I don't like personal flames either but since I had shipped my copies of Inside Mac to him and then followed with a letter that was never answered, I was left little choice. I apologize to Mr. Johnson for my flame and to all of you for having to put up with it. =============================================================================== Steve Witten stevewi%hpspdra@hplabs.hp.com Intelligent Networks Operation ...!hplabs!hpspdra!stevewi Hewlett-Packard Co. stevewi@hpspdra.spd.hp.com

I don't know about US law, but in Australia, the preceding two posts would be a good prima facie case for defamation!! I would be very careful with posts like this fired off in the heat of the moment if I were you, buddy. -- John Wilkins, Manager, Publishing & Advertising, Monash University Melbourne, Australia - Internet: john@publications.ccc.monash.edu.au Disclaimer: IF Standard(disclaimer) THEN Applies(disclaimer) ELSIF Nonstandard(disclaimer) THEN PROBABLY (Applies(disclaimer)) ENDIF
