Heavens to Murgatroyd! Whatever next will you come up with Mr. Casso? It must have become increasingly clear to almost everyone here that you find it difficult to understand or comprehend anything at all, large or small, important or trivial, or you would not write and behave interminably in the way you do and have always done. Are you getting an increasing amount of offensive email? (You've referred to email twice in the last day or two). That would not surprise me in the least the way you have performed _publicly_ in alt.ascii-art throughout September/October 1998. It does not need any input from Mailing Lists although there are often people on those lists who are very aware and sensitive to Net- abuse in all its forms. It would also not at all surprise me if you found yourself, as Tweeter warned, on the receiving end of a TOS ( Termination Of Supply ) of Net access following your deliberate tampering with names and attributes, and especially the incident of the newsgroup's FAQs and forging the authorship of a deliberately distorted version written entirely by you yourself in an attempt to deceive new readers. If you have the proof about email that you claim then you should address yourself to the Mailing List(s) concerned...NOT to this unmoderated public newsgroup...we know you much too well Mr. Casso. Go away...and take your private email problems with you. Many users of this newsgroup, alt.ascii-art, would take the view that you are fully entitled to whatever is coming to you in response to your activities both publicly and privately. . /:\ |:| |:| |:| |:| __ *_ _ _ _ _ _ _ * ,_|:|_, / ) | `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-'| (Oo / _I_ | | +\ \ || __| ^ | LONG LIVE alt.ascii-art | \ \||___| | | free & unmoderated | | \ /.:.\-\ | (*) |_ _ _ _ _ _ _ | \^/ | |.:. /-----\ | _<">_ | `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-'| _(#)_ | |___|::oOo::| o+o \ / \0 0/ \ / (=) / |:<-T->:| 0'\ ^ /\/ \/\ ^ /`0 |_____\ ::: / /_^_\ | | /_^_\ | | \ \:/ || || | | || || | | | | d|_|b_T____________________________T_d|_|b \ / | \___ / / / | \_____\ / / `-' / / ______________________________ / -cfbd98- /____________ Bye,
