  Do me a favor (no internet connection here) and let the good folks know
that we don't agree or disagree with everything in our library. If we
did, that would mean that we sanction each and every article in the online
magazines. What we do offer is the freedom of speech.  We do take great
strides in making sure our files work and are virus free as well as not
crossing over any legal lines. We do try. :-) 

Personally, they appear NOT to have the entire thread to make an accurate
judgement. That is too bad.  They really need to get online or obtain the
ENTIRE thread to make any conclusions. Unfortunately the lack of such
doesn't seem to stop some people.  Flags are given to people to give
online support. 

I was the very 1st person to obtain such for GEnie and to make GE aware of
the benefits.  It is a successful project. It is obvious they have
absolutely no idea what they are talking about in this regard.  Atari
doesn't run this RT, I do. I make all final decisions. I don't play games
and base my decisions on personal feelings. I actually have better things
to do than invest my time in those sort of games. I wish everyone did.
