Hey, chill out. It is absolutely no skin off my back to unsubscribe
to this group. I am not spouting opinion, I don't care what anyone
says or how they say it. It is a fact that computer users on this
network go off half cocked when they disparaging remarks about "their"
machine in _any_ newsgroup. When a lot of people do this the signal
to noise ratio drops to near zero and everyone except the flamers leave.
Those of us who have been around for the last 5 or 6 years see the
utility of trying to keep a lid on things. Again, I don't want to 
legislate morality and I don't care if people wish to indulge in 
childish flaming contests about which computer is better than another.
Call me cynical, call me cranky, call me the guy to used to post a
lot to comp.sys.amiga.

Have fun, go wild.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
