     By specific policy statement, I meant from Beagle Inc.  I saw Mark's
and other Beagle employees' statements of specific policy, but I didn't
know whether they were citing specific Beagle policy, i.e. "my opinions
are not those of the company I work for" clauses confused me.  If they
_are_ citing specific policy, I'm really sorry.  Sounds good to me, that's
all I wanted.
     My analogy to Apple policy was that you were flaming at some people
for what I thought were less than hostile statements, and was mostly out
of, well, "flamingness."  I wasn't connecting Beagle policy to Apple 
policy if it came out that way.  I think people were confused between
believing specific company statements and specific employee statements,
or only getting the company statement.  I think it was mostly a misunder-
standing, not a callous AII community.
     I don't think the AII community is a pure white satin sheet, but I don't
think it's as evil as it appears thru this Beagle shlock (I hope. ;-)
