I never said anything about your post, sir.  However, it *was* an
advertisement.  Now, I never said anything about it because I posted my
feelings about a neighbor's dog being sent to animal control because
they could not care for it any longer.  That sadden me deeply.  However,
if you posted your advertisement in dfw.forsale, then I can almost bet
there would have been no comments about your post.  In fact, you
probably might have gotten some takers for that dog.

What I do not understand is that those of you who seem so sure that this
is the place for advertisements for selling things and such have not
really checked into what newsgroups are available.  There is dfw.flame
for flame wars, dfw.forsale for selling and putting up want-ads,
dfw.general is the bit-bucket for all discussions,
dfw.home-theater.marketplace, dfw.internet.providers, dfw.jobs,
dfw.news, dfw.news.stats, dfw.personals (for personal ads),
dfw.politics, dfw.singles, and etc. 

Now before you start a rampage on what the charter says and what
newsgroups are allowed, I feel that we do stretch the charter quite a
bit.  RDT is able to bring up plenty of political topics as well as
morality issues.  We all argue pro and con, but that is part of
discussion.  If you really want to get down to it, that should be done
in dfw.general or dfw.politics, but did you see any of us flame him
because that issue belongs there - NO!  If any flaming was done it was
because people simply got ugly about the situation.

I am beginning to go back to my old beliefs about people owning
computers and such.  Before you can use it, you should have to have a
license.  LOL  Of course, that would cause a great deal of commotion and
what would be the purpose of that.

You know, it is easy to criticise, then leave without explaining
yourself.  If you sit and think about it, that is exactly what he did. 
If I criticise one of you, at least, I am willing to explain myself -
whether I am right or wrong.  For some of you, you gotta laugh at
yourself from time to time....I know that is what keeps me humble.

So, if you want this NG filled with unnecessary SPAM and pictures of
people's intimate areas, then let's just revert this NG back to what it
was.  Apparently, you cannot appreciate the fact that it is no longer
here because of the charter, but then again, you do not like guidelines,
either.  Anarchy rules, eh?

I can only please one person per day.  Today is not your
day, tomorrow doesn't look good either.
