I believe people were getting upset, not about what you were saying,
but because you posted *the same* thing four times.  If it was a
system error, then OK.  But you admitted that you reposted the blasted
article until you got a response.  This is not only a waste of money
(whose money you ask, This is an unknown), but also pisses people
off.  I have no problem with people saying what they want to, but
don't repost the same article four times --- it does make you a jerk!
