Even when you don't mean to? It may be just my imagination, John, but after reading several of your negative comments on several subjects to several people one word comes to mind: "Wanker". Of all the private e-mail I received regarding my posting here about bringing attention to the fractals ad (an ad sent from a government site with a strict AUP), I received *two* negative responses -- and yes, one was from you, John. By making these things public, it keeps things in check. Otherwise these types of ad posts/mailings -- at both taxpayer and personal expense -- are going to escalate. Can't you see the difference between a commercial site connected to a network, and using the network for commercial gain, John? Or are you really that dense? -------------------------------------------------------- Steve Frampton -- frampton@vicuna.ocunix.on.ca Vicuna Systems BBS (613) 547-5066 [9600 v.32/v.42 bis]
