Based on the articles that Geoff has posted, the entire world sees that he
appears to be a reasonable fellow.  When I say "entire world", I mean that
quite literally.  I'm not sure you are aware that your recent rantings have
escaped from FidoNet and have been sent to all the United States, Great
Britain, Japan, Israel, West Germany, etc.

Based on the articles that you have posted, we get the picture a rude,
vindictive, and childish person.  I have no idea what kind of person you
are; I can only judge you by your words.  The entire message quoted above
is an insult that does not help the Rainbow community in any way.  Your
use of smiley faces does not excuse this.

Mark, you should apologize.  If not to Geoff, then to all of us for making
all those accusations.  It's not Geoff who will be driven away by your
flames - it will be other readers.
