Editing the newsgroups: line is a > quick fix. Yeah, sure, but that's not the point. Radel comes in here with a rocket for c.s.a.advocacy, when it's the NEXT mob of ingrates who are the prime contributor to the problems that c.s.n has with 'crossposting'. Honestly, if people took notice of ALL of the mewling about crossposting, heck, there wouldn't be anything BUT arguments about who is crossposting what to where. The POINT of my message was the the very people who escalated the entire shitful argument about poxy NEXT computers were already within the legion of braindeath that is nomenclaturized as comp.sys.next. It's their fault. Fuck, I don't want to read the inane shit about whose machine can run a 68040 and who has better resolution, and who can have the biggest applications. It's not of interest to the general Amiga community. Let the NEXT flamelords suffer the slings and arrows of derision that THEY THEMSELVES initiated. > I don't know about you guys, but now that school is out I want to get > some work done(NeXT hacking, of course) and I can't possible followup > to 12-40 messages a day. Go for it.

Your boring presence will be relegated to bit-buckets around the globe. Enjoy your ongoing extended vacation in nowheresville. Dac --
