Lines: 20 Well, the QSTII debate seems to be dying down with all the "he shouldn't do this, we have to pay for his advertising..." seeming to be the order of the day. I personally am not all that bothered, but what really bugs me are all the 'For Sale' `adverts' I have to read. All from the US. I shouldn't have to do this. Why not use the Distribution: line, folks???? If *I* had to pay for this, I'd be pretty pissed off, but I don't (except through taxes of course), so I'm not. I suppose what I'm trying to say is don't only slag off Darek for breaking the netiquette when so many others break it too... bob Send vast amounts of abusing/amusing flames to: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- bob nutter, computer officer | "The Christian Resolution to find UMIST dept of computation | the world ugly and bad has made the po box 88 manchester m60 1qd uk | world ugly and bad." tel:+44 61 200 3386 | -Nietzsche email:b.nutter@umist.ac.uk |
