SPEEK FER YERSELF!

I just downloaded a posting about a used Koala Pad. I think it would be handy
to have one o' those without having to pay store prices.

I've been following responses, and you seem to indicate you get here from other
than netnews. Am I to understand that the info-apple gateway, or whatever
you're using, doesn't have a KILL file?

If I wanted to pass over all the ads, for instance - I would just put a line
in my local comp.sys.apple kill file to junk any posting with "sale" anywhere
on the subject line. `Course, that might junk other stuff as well, but if I
were as patently insensed and horrified and hostile toward as you are toward
fellow Apple-eaters who just want to practice a little recycling...
something which in my opinion we should do more of in all areas.

I'm not about to boycott sellers. In fact, anyone willing to sell off a
graphics tablet real cheap can E-mail me anytime!

And if I hear any more flames from you about it.....

Well, it ain't the word "sell" that's gonna be added to my kill file.

No, it will be a kill by username. Guess who's.
