If you really and truly are still no one other than the real Joris 
Bellenger then you would know that things became pretty nasty here a 
long long time ago. 

I've never liked that either but it seems to happen from time to 
time in most newsgroups, and indeed in this medium as a whole. The 
whole spectrum of human society can be found on the Net.  

So, whilst I much admire the "b'ger" classy artwork I do not have to 
accordingly admire your viewpoints on what has happened in the past 
and what is happening now in alt.ascii-art, namely, The Stein Wars. 

I tried my best to keep out of the first outbreaks but I seem 
unable to do so in this current brouhaha.  

So...whilst I respect your difference in viewpoints I do not share 
those viewpoints with you.  

Meanwhile, Mr. Casso will do his very best to encourage squabbles 
between all the users of this newsgroup in an attempt to divide and 
rule and get his own way. He has several times openly stated that he 
enjoys doing that.  

Sorry, but I ain't gonna subscribe to that scenario. If you choose 
to do so then that is indeed your privilege.  

Later,
