    Seeing as recent discussion on this thread  has  degenerated  into  a
    flame  fest,  allow me to express my general disgust at the responses
    to Garry's (garry@ithaca.com) thoughts on VMS shareable  images  from
    the self professed VMS "experts" in this group.

    Ehud (gavron@vesta.sunquest.com) spouts a fair amount of drivel about
    hackers, engineers and "scientifics". Carl (carl@SOL1.GPS.CALTECH.EDU)
    sounds like he would prefer  a  fistfight  to  a  discussion  on  the
    subject.   Neither  one seems to offer any insights or other coherent
    thoughts on  why  (technically)  Garry's  ideas  are  so  bad.   They
    actually  tend to sound somewhat like a VMS "Moral Majority" - VMS is
    good ... DEC did it right ... anyone who says different is  evil  and
    must be exorcised from the NET.

    Sorry guys ... any argument that relies on four-letter-friend-getters,
    sarcasm, and personal attacks holds little weight in my book.

    If  you  don't  have  anything  else  to  offer,  I,  for  one, would
    appreciate it if you would go find another thread to flame.
