Gena:
What the copulating hades ever possessed you to write such a post? I
understand that we're all a bit tense because of Teddy's constant
trolling, but there's no reason to blast those who might not organize
their thoughts in the way that *you* approve of. What really pisses me off
about your post, is that's a perfect example of what some folks, Teddy for
example, bitch about the Linux community for. That's the reason I'm not
on the Blinux list, for example. The really cool thing about the Speakup
list is that, in the vast majority of cases, we've been free of such
trash. No-one is holding a gun to your head requiring you to answer every
post that you read. If a question doesn't meet your ultra high standards
for organization, why not do the Net a favor and just move on without
responding.
Thanks for listening.
